 Spring is upon us and that means the return of birds. I like to set up my hummingbird feeder before they are sighted so the first ones make their stop at my house and maybe call it home. Usually this is around May first but with all the warm weather and early buds I may have to change my calendar.

 Still working on finishing up for my art show at Elmaro Winery in May. Once that's done I'll be free as a bird to get outside and paint. Can wait!

As La Crosse Society of Arts and Crafts, feathered artist for April and May.

Imagination Vacation

 There's nothing like a Disney experience to bring out your inner child. 

Lots of smiles, screams and sparks flying during a three day adventure to Florida's Disney World. 

Our stay ended with a beautiful performance by Cirque Du Soliel called Drawn to Life. They collaborated with Disney to bring animation to life. It was of course all things Disney with acrobatic choreography.
