Welcome to Spring!

Spring is in the air and I’ve finished my Spring 2013 Collection, Desert Flower.

Today is the Vernal Equinox. The Vernal Equinox or ‘equal night’ is when the sun is over the equator, and there is about an equal amount of day and night all over the world. Then, as we head toward summer, we can enjoy longer days ahead! This means warmer weather, lighter layers of clothing, and the return of organic life to a frosty landscape.

I’ve been tucked away all winter in my forest studio working on my Desert Flower Spring Collection. Inspired by my time in Santa Fe and also by my childhood- filled with the awe of seeing beautiful flowers spring forth from cacti and other native desert plants. And now, I’m excited to share my vision with you!

***Announcement***

Indian Market in Santa Fe is this weekend and I couldn’t be more excited! I’ve been hearing wonderful, romantic stories about Indian Market since I was a child and Finally get to experience it first hand!! Today, my father painted a fabulous little Kachina in honor of the upcoming event and I just had to share it with you… If you don’t know about Indian Market, you can learn more at the website. If you want to find me on Friday or Saturday, I’ll be wandering around the Santa Fe Plaza nibbling on Hopi Piki bread. See you there!
