Burton Potterveld was born March 15, 1908 in Dubuque, Iowa. His early leisure, spent roaming the hills and valleys of the Mississippi River region, made him familiar with the natural characteristics of eastern Iowa and western Wisconsin. This experience created in him a desire to express artistically the spirit of this midwestern region. Mr. Potterveld, an instructor at the Layton School of Art since 1930, was educated in the public schools of Dubuque; at the I-ayton School of Art, Milwaukee; at the University of Dubuque; and at the University of Wisconsin Division in Milwaukee. To this artist, whose paintings and drawings have been exhibited throughout this state and at Chicago, we are indebted for the mural on Wisconsin’s progress which hangs in our library, a gift of the United States Government Public Works of Art Project.
