2 DOORS + WHITE CLOUDS 7"h x 9"w pastel 11"h x 14"w linen matte, museum glass + gold scrolled frame $425 - shipping + tax inclusive Bet you thought I would speak about the heat  and  begin to reminisce of the years that I lived in New Mexico.  Well it truly was a wonderful sight to behold, all the  blue, blue skies that seem to never end, with huge white  clouds  dotting the sky. And the earthen adobe structures  contrasting  sharply against those blue skies. But no . . . I posted this little painting of Taos Pueblo to  let you all know that I am exhibiting eight of my  Southwest  pastels at Ray Street Custom Framing and Gallery.  If you live in San Diego, trot over to view tomorrow evening  during  Ray At Night, a monthly ArtWalk in North Park from 6 to 9 pm. Or bop over there during the hours of 11am - 6pm, Tuesday through Saturdays.  Just a slice of Southwestern life!

WINDOW + A CLOUD 4 1/2" X 4 1/2" pastel 8" square white archival matte, glass and gold leaf frame $150 + $15 insured priority shipping The sky was so blue and the sun extremely bright today, as I spent much of the day outside. As time passed, I begun to reminisce of Taos Pueblo. Taos was one of my favorite locations to visit when I lived in Albuquerque. The contrast of the adobe buildings against the blue sky was always visually exhilarating. There's such a dark richness in the brown color of an adobe, yet so many other colors were apparent upon closer scrutiny. And the organic shape of the walls emanated an Earthy feel. But above all, I felt a comforting unification between the Earth and the blue sky as I stood in awe in front of the Pueblo.
