It warms it up. Often, I find spaces that are too-wide-open can be a little cold but not this. I could move in tomorrow. It surprised me that the exterior of the house was so white when the inside darker, but I suppose in the climate that makes some sense.<br /><br />I loved the bed, chest and that first sunburst carving was just stunning. The painting of his daughter really touched my heart. And I love the postcard wall -- I'm glad you added one to your journal -- it makes the page extra special.Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-73402905499891159082017-03-20T06:27:29.872-04:002017-03-20T06:27:29.872-04:00What a great place to visit, the wood carvings are...What a great place to visit, the wood carvings are amazing! They look so tactile and the patterns are beautiful :-) . Your journal pages are awesome, the roadrunner image is perfect - I love it! The postcard is a lovely addition to your page and such a great memento of your trip. The blanket with the Native American hidden underneath is so cool too.

I also enjoyed the beautiful paintings, but the carved wood was what made my day.<br /><br />I would have been like you and taken one of those post cards, too. I bet you aren't the first person to keep one as a souvenir. It went quite well in your lovely travel journal, too. Most impressive pages that made me feel like I was there with you during this adventure. You always inspire me!Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-56403249378835780862017-03-18T15:27:32.134-04:002017-03-18T15:27:32.134-04:00What an amazing artist!

I like the portrait of his daughter.<br />Your art journal is so beautiful.<br />I was in Taos only once during the winter, and it was so crowded that we decided to visit the Pueblo instead. No regrets about this decision, but I sure hope to go back to Taos one day.Carola Bartzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05536486322412234854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1034532151955863306.post-27779598081886968282017-03-18T10:28:08.108-04:002017-03-18T10:28:08.108-04:00Wonderful photos from your trip away.

Fechin's carvings and home were beautiful. Oh, I'd love his studio, too. I'm sure he'd be delighted you took a postcard to put in your journal.
