I enjoy living along the beautiful Mississippi River in the driftless region of Guttenberg Iowa.  This small historic town is home to the last original Lockmaster's House on Lock 10 and boasts a small array of shops, cafes, a creativity center, and a brewery and offers a quiet and serene way of living.  The sound of barges and paddle tour boats and the vision of fishermen and fisherwomen casting out along the shores, with old shanties dotting the shoreline - all of this is inspiration for an artist!  Sign up for my newsletter and follow along as I work to create a new series celebrating all I love about this river and life along it!
