The Birdie Dances Again

Ballet Birdie No.4, 8x10


Susan decided that the best way to strengthen her ankles for dancing was to walk around the house in her pointe shoes. OK, she actually just likes to be taller than her twin sister.

Ballet Birdie

Ballet Birdie, 8x10

Vintage Hats

Bunny in a Hat, 8x10

The Cowboy, 8x10
