We are spending the evening washing clothes and will be packing tomorrow. Exciting stuff for my blog. We will be on the road on Thursday heading back to Texas. I'm happy and sad about that. I imagine you understand that, right?
I am an artist that paints in pastels, with some oils, and acrylics. I sketch in pen and ink. As an artist my original paintings are influenced from living in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, Bolivia, Peru and Chile, and travels throughout much of Canada and all our fifty States. This is my spot for posting paintings and sketches, to muse mostly about art, life and a little about UT Baseball.

Albuquerque to Magdalena Photos
We went to Magdalena today to pick up some of my paintings from Peppers Gallery. It was a quick trip. I always take photos out the window and today was no exception. I have taken these same photos over and over I am sure. I especially like the Ladrone Mountains as you can see if you put Ladron Mountains in my search box.
This is the Ladrones from I-25 near the Rio Puerco with the salt cedars for color. You can see some of todays photos on my Picasa albums.

- I Grew up in a small town , Magdalena, New Mexico. I enjoy art and the pleasure other people get from my work. I always donate some of my sales and art to charities, especially for children. That started in Bolivia with Para los NiƱos. "I cannot pretend to feel impartial about colors. I rejoice with the brilliant ones and am genuinely sorry for the poor browns." -- Winston Churchill

You really do have some gorgeous scenery - and painting opportunities - where you live.
And yes, I can relate to the happy/sad thing about vacations coming to an end. Nice to go off, nice to come home!
Jo: That is a great view of the landscape.
A lot of really nice photos, Jo. It's good to see them large, too. I don't much care for desert, but do see the beauty of it.
It's about time ya'll came back home!
Hi Teresa, thanks. I didn't paint nearly as much as I should have. Plenty of photos, though. It will be nice to get home.
fishing guy, thank you. You don't have to do much to get nice shots here for sure.
Regina, thank you, too. I'm still a desert person. I like to sit and look into nowhere. Ha. I'm ready to hit the road tomorrow!
I do love dessert, does that count?
Regina, you got me! I like both. Ha.
