For years strange shapes have been appearing in the endless fields around Kansas, courtesy of local and internationally renowned Land artist Stan Herd.
Praise has been heaped on the artist for his enormous images of still life or local historical figures, such as Kiowa Chief Satanta, rendered directly onto a canvas supplied by Mother Nature. Earlier this year he was even commissioned to compose an image of Kansas State’s new quarter design in a field as part of the launch celebrations for the newly minted coin.
