Happy Spring to everyone (in the northern hemisphere)!
In my little area of the world, it feels like the longest, coldest and darkest winter. Yesterday I was sitting on my couch and the birds were having a party outside in the tree on my front lawn. I counted 7 robins at one point + male and female cardinals, blue jays and grackles. Lots of joyful chirping.
Spring is here.
It is.
Hello friends! I'm Lori Portka. I make art with the intention to radiate love and healing. 
Hi Lori, it’s nice meeting you through Laura.
I am very fortunate to live in a suburb in Sydney that has many many wildlife.
When I paint, I paint to the sound of many birds, like the laughing kookaboora (they are very loud), the cockatoos, the lorikeets and king parrots!
Aren’t we lucky?
