History of the Wolf Creek Logo The Wolf Creek Generating Station logo is a synthesis of man and nature. Its Native American designer used symbolism and mythology to link nuclear technology to the Kansas landscape. In designing the Wolf Creek insignia in 1980, Native American artist Blackbear Bosin hoped to focus on the plant's positive role. The central image of a wolf represents a great provider that lived in harmony with the environment; for Bosin, the plant performed the same function. The blue band encircling the wolf's head symbolizes water, referencing the cooling lake surrounding the plant. In the background Bosin has placed the Sirius Star, which the Greeks associated with summer heat; to the artist, Sirius also symbolized the heat produced by the plant's nuclear engine. Descended from Kiowa-Comanche heritage, Blackbear Bosin was born in Anadarko, Oklahoma, in 1921. After serving in World War II, he moved to Wichita and worked as an illustrator for Boeing Aircraft. Recognized for working in multiple mediums, Bosin was best known for sculpting the "Keeper of the Plains," a 44-foot statue commissioned by KG&E and placed in downtown Wichita.
