About the Artist

Friend, Nebraska, population 1,100, lies 55 miles west of Lincoln on Highway 6.
At Friend Schools, all grades, K-12, are housed in one building. The art classes at all of these grade levels meet in the same room, making it easy to coordinate multi-grade level projects like the painting of this rain barrel.
