http://www.donhetzelfineart.com  My artwork encompasses a wide versatility of style and medium with diversified techniques in three disciplines- drawing, painting, and printmaking. I tend to work on a large scale but small enough to comfortably fit private collections. The work is an interpretation of the images and influences in my life, rendered in an expressionistic fashion with an importance on the figure in the subject matter. My pursuit of expression in the visual arts has always dealt with self exploration as a sentient artist and the intuitive process of creating. Beginning without any preconceived ideas about how the image should look, the intuitive process of creating becomes a conversation between myself and the artwork. It expresses the combination of my spiritual and physical being. The combination of these aspects of life is represented in the work by the medium (the physical) and the illusion of the subject (the spiritual). As in my own life, sometimes the physical is more prevalent and sometimes the spiritual dominates. ? 2006 Don Hetzel

http://www.mccunehouse.com  The McCune House is one of the oldest homes in Keokuk. It was built in 1848, by "Honest John McCune", a river man. In those days, there was no Franklin Street, but only Third Street, so the entrance of the home was on the river side of the house.

The house was built of grey limestone, taken from the Des Moines River quarries, as were the homes of Guy Wells, and Civil War General Samuel R. Curtis. The house was originally 2 1/2 stories, but John McCune later raised the half floor to a full 3rd story.
