Making Music at Leesburg Art Festival
The Leesburg Art Festival was an enjoyable event and an opportunity for me to share my flutes and kanteles.

I enjoyed meeting members of the Riverwind Flute Circle and performing on […]

The natural wood doors are dyed to let the grain of the spalted magnolia and sycamore trees show through. Some doors have extensive pyrography (wood burning) for detail and enhancements. Other doors have carving. […]
