A memory of a time when picking up your mail and a few supplies could be an hours-long, relaxed social event, and a testimony to historical preservation and respect for the past. The tiny crossroads of Iron Hill sat about 9 miles east of Marion, Crittenden County, Kentucky. When Joseph Dean became postmaster in 1874, he built a new post office and general store. This building replaced it in 1910, and the community was re-named “Deanwood” in the family’s honor. Although it has not been a working store or post office for decades, the land’s new owner maintains it including the paint job as a link to the region’s history. I lived in Marion for a decade, and was so intrigued passing by the store that I sought out its history, which I share with you here as part of my “Country Values” series.

“I create convergent media art that celebrates the values of rural life and of the land itself, that fosters a sense of self-empowerment, self-love, self-representation, community, and the strengths of traditional cultures. My work explores the relationship between both high and low technology cultures, ethnic and class identities, shamanic tourism, and an expanding sense of the natural and supernatural worlds. As a verbal and visual storyteller, I strive to commit my rich and varied life experiences to canvas and paper, sharing the ceremonial life of indigenous communities in both normal and visionary time, and exploring concepts of strength and vulnerability through treatments of my royal, noble, and humble ancestors. What starts out as contemplation becomes, I hope, a portal for the viewer to briefly enter another reality, leaving only a sense of a picture album of the road not taken and a eulogy for the self-imposed limits of our existence.” Books "ESCAPE From the Darkroom! - Old-School Principles Applied to Modern Digital Photography" [2013] https://amazon.com/dp/1484840011/ “GeoHypnotics: A Gentle Way to Access Deeper Consciousness” [2016] Four volumes https://www.amazon.com/dp/1530632501/ ; https://www.amazon.com/dp/1530640121/; https://www.amazon.com/dp/1530644690/ ; https://www.amazon.com/dp/1530786126/ https://amazon.com/author/brianwilkes
