Yesterday I took a break from work and walked south in the warm sunshine to the Smithsonian National Museum of Native Americans. See the show, A Song for the Horse Nation on view until July 7. It’s glorious! Animals & bead work equal love.

Happy Birthday to Carl ! Long live his love of rainbows & ceramics.

Whew! I just dove into a deep deep pool of textiles, patterns and power. My eyes are now beaming pattern light. Check this place out and if you have the money—spend it on South Persian Tribal rugs. Totally worth it.

Beadwork, museum photography (baby blue!) and natural to man made objects—a collection of my favorite things! Innu and their ancestors have resided on a large portion of Labrador and eastern Quebec for over two thousand years. According to Innus the world is an island created by wolverine and mink after a great flood.
