An event that features a wide variety of artwork is returning to southeast Iowa.  One of the artists who took part in the Southeast Iowa Artists Studio Tour last year, Craig Swift, says many of the people that visited their studio were from out of the area.  He adds those that came were interested in seeing how he was able to put his photographs together using PhotoShop.

Artist Steve Maxon will be presenting bronze pieces and he says people will see how the casting process works as well.

The tour covers loops in Washington, Henry, Des Moines and Lee counties and will run from 9:00 to 4:00 Saturday, the 20th and from 12:00 to 4:00 on Sunday, the 21st.  For more information, look
