Flint Hills wind is no laughing matter...unless you are giddy from the unrelenting power of it.
Of the more ethereal elements that influence the atmosphere of the art in this area, most pronounced are the basics of smoke, wind, sun, grass, and waves---waves of plant life, of weather, of time.
Here are some samples of the amazing wind:

Two pictures i think truly capture WINDINESS:
