Oxford, Iowa

The home of John Andrews, featured in the New York Times today. I have always thought about living near Oxford if/when we return to the Midwest. I really liked the feel of that crumbling main street, with those big old brick commercial buildings. I liked John’s setup with the studio downstairs and home area upstairs. I think my studio needs have changed since I had those original ideas, but I do like the idea of a small town in Iowa filled with lots of different artists. Kind of like Stone City back in the day. A little Iowa nostalgia for the afternoon.

    Yeah, he gave me a book about Sol Lewitt. I also called him out of the blue a few years later to find out what a basic encaustic kit would consist of (for Sarah’s birthday). Really super nice guy.
