Flights of Fancy: America’s Birds
Now on exhibit, Flights of Fancy: America’s Birds, features sculptures of all 50 state birds as well as the Bald Eagle. Artist Don Vassallo has depicted more than 150 different bird species in more than 500 pieces of sculpture since he began carving in 1976. He captures a sense of each species’ character, a skill fostered during his 50-year avocation as an active birder. Songbirds and miniatures of all types are his specialty, often created with beautifully detailed environmental settings.
