I everything I create I strive to make it original. As I've posted before I was inspired to make these Blue.Bird bags by my grandmother, who was constantly re-using and thus making items with the bags.

With this new line of my bags I have decided on original screenprinting on the cotton fabric. Using black ink and the black ric rack and ribbon give definition to the new line of my Blue.Bird handbags. I also have added a handmade tassle for a signature.

Look for this new line at the Gallup Inter-tribal Ceremonial at Red Rocks State Park near Gallup, NM and at the Indigenous Fine Arts Market in Santa Fe, NM.

Trek the Nature

Hiking the 'beautyful' outdoors is my favorite time in life. It is in the Nature that I am able to be humbled in a good way and find gratitude for the life I have.

This image was taken on a trek recently to the Santa Fe area. I was able to stop off and do some exploring in the mountain area.

This season is the best time to be outside trekking. For me its a time to become inspired by the randomness of the wild: the trees, plants, flora, water, and sky and animals.  I always find blessings in the outdoor treks. Enjoy it!
