Canyon Lake resident and self-described “artist of all arts” April Caballero asked Heritage Museum of the Texas Hill Country board members Kathy and Rich Ferguson to list projects they needed help with.
“As soon as I heard ‘painting dinosaurs,’ I knew that was what I wanted to do,” she said. “I’m so grateful to Kathy for trusting me with this project.”
Caballero runs Happy Little Lake Studio, focusing on murals and window painting. Other skills include making pottery, sculptures, jewelry, and piñatas.
She became involved with the Heritage Museum and Canyon Lake Gorge through her training as a Texas Master Naturalist.
The artist and educator taught kindergarten and pre-K in public schools for 21 years and now works as a substitute teacher.
The museum sits on a 2.5-acre tract at 4831 FM 2673 in Canyon Lake, the site of 275 dinosaur footprints. The nonprofit is dedicated to the collection, conservation, preservation, and display of materials associated with the natural and cultural history of the Texas Hill Country.
