The days are slipping by fast here and the Artisans Road Trip is quickly approaching! If you haven't heard of A.R.T. before, it is an open studio tour of artist's studios and galleries in NW Iowa each fall. This year marks the 10th Anniversary for the Artisans Road Trip and there's a lot of artists scattered about the countryside here in NW Iowa to enjoy - why not stop by the studio here and get a great view of the valley and the studio as well!
I have been busy framing up new pieces for visitors to see and even just finished a small color pencil drawing that I started back in July! A nice little piece of a Red Admiral butterfly on a Swamp Milkweed (Aclepias incarnata) in the lower pasture here!
I have also been busy creating new gift cards and note card sets! Did
you know the largest gift card and note card
collection portraying NW Iowa
is found right here in our studio?! No where else will
you be able to find as many, beautiful, and diverse Note
Card Sets, single panel, two panel and
triple panel Art Cards and Photo
Cards of NW Iowa, our landscape and flora
and fauna!

The
most recent addition to our notecard sets is the
"Scenic O'Brien County Card Collection"! This
beautiful little set is of the most recent set of
beautiful landscapes to be added to our notecard
collection. Our note cards come in sets of 4 designs,
2 of each - in a set of 8 cards and envelopes. These
are great cards to send to friends and family - the
old fashioned way of communicating is still the best -
most personal and heartfelt, and genuine way of
communicating with those you love!
