This event comes after the recent release of Steps of Saint Paul’s by Baxter. This beautiful watercolor painting captures the beautiful moment first shared during Feed the Birds in Mary Poppins. This film is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year. The song, and the painting, show off the beauty of kindness.
