Here I come, Santa Fe!
I couldn't leave from the window on the way to Albuquerque after Dallas.
It was incredibly beautiful.
They are the Wind Farms.
What are these circle written on the ground?
My head was full of question marks. It was too great if it was naturally appeared and so on..
Do you have any ideas?
Let's think about it .
I will tell you at the end.
Anyway.
I went to Santa Fe for having trunk show with our longest clients in the US, Santa Fe Weaving Gallery.
Get there afternoon on 21st.
Visited her Gallery then was invited to Jill, the owner of the Gallery, to have dinner.
22nd, the next day. Started the day from 10 am and gave a speech in front of many customers there.
Actually, I knew some people whom I met in Kyoto already. Jill conducted that tour last Nov. I enjoyed the re-union and felt more relaxed talking to them.
People were all joyous to try them on talking and smiling and purchasing. Thank you so much.
The woman with red glasses is Jill, the owner of Santa Fe Weaving Gallery.
She is very capable and trusted by her clients, and was helping them to choose garments with interesting styling with such a high speed. I was so impressed with that!
Someone I met in NYC told me that once you visited Santa Fe, you would never be leaving there, and it was so true. The town was fantastic and beautiful !
Someone I met in NYC told me that once in Santa Fe, no one wants to leave there. And I truly agree to it. The town was so beautiful!
In Santa Fe, you will find many Adobe buildings made with yeloowish or reddish clay, and they are somewhat round, uniquly shaped. This special construction method was brught from Spain, then mixed with Mexican and American colonial style and culture in the West.
@ Museum of Induab Arts and Culture.
Old living space(remainings) of Native Americans.
This is chorisa, and if you dye with this plant, you can get wonderful yellow!
She took me a drive through the town on the last day of my stay, and the view from the car windows are beyond my words, and so beautiful!
I wish I could show 360 degree view!
I even had a goose bumps....
She took me to very famous American weaver's atelier in Chimayo, and he is the 7th generation of the family weaver. He and his wife dyes with madder roots and plants, and hand-weaves on the loom.
This shot is with his wife, Rita(second from right), and she mentioned that she exports textiles to Japan, and would love to visit there.
Jill introduced me so many friends and clients, artists during my short stay, and I had a wonderful and fruitful time there. I still have more photos, and am hoping to show them soon.
As for the ending.....
That was the wet remains of spraying of the sprinklers which scatters water in this dry land.
This is the answer of the question at the beginning of the blog !
Make sense?
