Welcome to Wonder Time Arts: Where Art and Nature Meet
Hello Dear Visitor,
I am Cheryl Schellenberg, an artist, teacher, tea sipper, and naturalist. I am nestled in with my husband and dream builder, Steven Schellenberg, at Chateau De Schellenberg on Lavender Hill, Squaw Valley, California. Here, art and nature dance together with our alpacas beneath painted skies. Young artists and the young at heart can connect with wonder, and self expression through art, Every brush stroke becomes a prayer and every color a whisper of wild flowers. Of course, we love visitors to just hop over and enjoy our herd of alpacas and Madomoiselle Pepper de Llama. Perhaps you would love to do a photo shoot or just sit enjoying the forest, gardens, and lavender. It's always a magical day sharing Wonder Time, and God's Goodness with you.
Come Curious..................... Leave Enchanted.
Love,
Mrs. Schellenberg
