    The house where American Gothic was painted was in my home state of Iowa. I visited one time!

    Interesting to see that the artist worked in so many different mediums. Now i want to research more about Wood’s life. Thanks for the education.

    The Grant Wood exhibition looks wonderful. Of course I am familiar with American Gothic but know little about the rest of Wood’s work, which looks well worth seeing and learning more about.

    What variety! I especially enjoyed the painting ‘Appraisal’ from 1931, and that golfer could well be Mike Pence! Enjoyed this post. Thank you.
