“The Dutch Mill in Wamego City Park is absolutely beautiful in the spring. The Dutch Mill is surrounded by redbud trees in bloom and lots of tulips. Since the theme was Totos Around Town, I thought it would be great to combine them - the tulips, the Dutch Mill and Toto. As with the sunflower Toto, I left the head and feet of the Toto painted black and brown, to look like the Toto in the Wizard of Oz. I painted the center of the body with a springtime scene in the park with the tulips surrounding the Dutch Mill.”
