I have something a little different this week. This is an original work of art that is hanging on a wall at my house. I met this artist in Santa Fe New Mexico the last time I was there and his whimsical paintings and books drew my interest the moment I saw them. I think it's because they spark the seeds of exploration and wanderlust that bubbles inside of me. The artists name is Jeffrey Schweitzer and he lives and works in Santa Fe. He has published several small books (I bought one of those too) along with a collections of illustrations.
Here is one that was on display in his tiny studio inside the lobby of the Inn at Loretto, the hotel where I was staying.
That little travel trailer reminded me so much of my many travels with my family when I was growing up. My family traveled for many years with a travel trailer staying at beautiful and interesting places all over the United States and Canada.
Jeffrey has an Instagram site where you can see more of his wonderful works of art. His books are available on Amazon.com.
Looking at this little painting always makes me want to hit the road once again.
