A Brush With Life
Casual conversations with artists, musicians, farmers and so many other creative, fascinating folks from southeast Minnesota. Let's find out how they got here, what inspires them, what challenges them and how they work.
A Brush With Life is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Southeast Minnesota Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.

#7 BlueGrass Songs & Prairie Grass Paintings - with Becky Schlegel
Please leave me your feedback and ideas here!
Becky Schlegel grew up in South Dakota singing classic country music. When she moved to Minnesota, she fell in love with bluegrass music and with her banjo-pickin' husband, Heath Loy. Now Becky is a singer with a voice as sweet as nectar writing songs that tug at your heart or lull you to peace, a painter of gestural flowers, and the grateful steward of a 100+-year-old farmstead.
