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.

Kirk Payne is enraptured by raptors! Kirk is a practitioner of the ancient sport of Falconry - training wild hawks to hunt for quarry. He is also an ardent conservationist, protecting and promoting the expansion of the kestrel population by installing nesting boxes throughout the regon in appropriate landscapes. But he is most beloved in the community for teaching youth and families about the wonders of the natural world for many years as the (now retired) Director of Quarry Hill Nature Center.
