Threads of Identity with Arianne Cope

Arianne Cope is a painter, fiber artist, shepherd, and mother living in the Missouri Ozarks. She spends her days raising sheep and angora rabbits, spinning and dyeing wool by hand, and creating paintings inspired by the entire journey. Her work captures the rhythms of farm life, and the relationships she has built with the animals and people in her care. These experiences become works of art that explore comfort, resilience, and identity.
