kj-I feel blessed to live here. Jan-yes, I have been to Mabel's lodge and not only that, but the first year I lived here (13 years ago) I cooked a Thanksgiving dinner for friends in the kitchen, I knew the man who took care of the place, he died of a brain tumor a year later. I will never forget that night.
I love it and of course you are coming. You are gypsy number 16 and you are just to sit and make us our drinking cups and dinner plates. Because everyday after we eat and no matter how beautiful they are we will have to smash them.
yes, it is a stunning place to live! Joey-Yes, I have done that hike many times, I always start in the Ski valley parking lot to give it an extra kick :-). That lake is stinky though, pretty, but stinky. The hike is wonderful, and beautiful though. Renee-That sound wonderful, making and smashing plates :-). Mermaid-They are, and they always cheer me up, no matter what.
One just feels uplifted looking at this photo. One of the cloud formations I love that happen above mountains is lenticular clouds (don't really know much else about clouds but an outdoor instructor I used to live with told me that)
I am a painter living in the beautiful moutain town of Taos New Mexico.
Artist Statement:
I have been painting since I was eight years old when I declared to my mother that I wanted to be an artist. She promptly went out and bought me an oil set. Perhaps not the wisest choice for a child, but it got me started. I have been painting ever since and my way of working and what I paint has changed dramatically over the years. At this point in time I am working with mixed media on board and canvas. Nearly every image starts with a dream, either waking or sleeping. Other subjects that inform my work are literature and nature. Each painting is for me an adventure in color and texture,an exploration of joy and a way for me to get to know myself better. There is always a personal narrative and some hidden message that I am unaware of until it reveals itself in the finished piece. My paintings are about whatever is going on in my life at the time I am painting. My intention when I do a painting is to be true to my authentic voice and perhaps to open someone's heart and mind to all the possibilities around them.

Have you climbed Wheeler peak, or at least gotten to the lake in the summer. It is incredible!
