Bio

As a Midwesterner, I grew up on a farm (mostly grain, very little livestock during my lifetime) in NW Iowa. My father was a retired farmer with two engineering degrees he applied to design and make farm machinery as well as a multitude of "artistic" and/or very functional creations. My mother was an art major who painted watercolors at least as early as 1937 and as recently as 2000. She also worked for the Rolfe Public Library for 35 years, retiring in 1998. The primary goal of this blog is to enlighten others about my mother's watercolors in the hope to increase interest in prints of her work. All profits from the prints will benefit the Rolfe (Iowa) Public Library. I have an interest in farming, but have a lot to learn about what all goes on in agriculture, even though I grew up on a farm. I also worked as an elementary school teacher-librarian for seventeen years, so I love children's literature. (No...no bun on the back of my head!) And, I love the rich heritage I've inherited through my Mother's work (paintings, librarianism, volunteerism, raising six children) and my father always using every teachable moment to try to broaden my horizons. Hopefully I will pass some of that (plus, perhaps some pure random goofiness) along via this blog.
