Soul of the Southwest...

That phrase describes me perfectly, I love New Mexico, that is my quiet place when the big city gets to be too much for me. I thank the Lord that my husband is in love not only with me but New Mexico too. He too is inspired by the colors, nature and beauty of the desert and many of his pieces of art are created from places he has been there.

As mentioned yesterday, I have been working on some polymer clay pieces that I plan on taking with me to the show in Taos. Here is a little sneak peek at one that I made for myself to wear while out there. I have always loved playing in the garden or MUD since I was a little girl and that is what polymer clay reminds me of, free to make what ever you like!

On My Way to the Land of Enchantment!

Well it is Saturday night and I am working on my new polymer clay pieces that I will be taking to Taos next weekend and tomorrow will be spent making some new bracelets and necklaces. Rebecca from AdobeSol made some beautiful clasps for me and I can't wait to get started!

I don't think we will be able to make it to the ranch so I thought I would post some pics from when Rob went down last in March.

Have a good weekend all!

The Pecos River runs through our town. Those big boulders have been there forever! The next pic is part of our family's land and where we hope to build a little place of our own to stay when we go down there.

This is the beautiful choya (cactus) that has lovely little flowers blooming on it! When the choya dies we collect it to make crosses.
