This weekend was
Silver City's annual
Red Dot Studio Tour!
Dozens of local art studios
and galleries
opened their doors for the weekend
to share their creative process
and collections!
It was pretty rad!
Here are some photos from
our visit with my friend
and local artist,
Victoria Chick.

Visiting Vicki at her studio is always a treat for me.
I love just chatting with her
and seeing the progress
on some of her newer pieces.
One time,
she even invited me over
for coffee and to teach me
how to build and stretch my own canvas!
It was pretty awesome.
We actually worked on this
large painting below with the horses.

And with her cats roaming around the property,
the open doors of her work space,
and the gorgeous views and warm breeze,
I can't help but leave
uplifted.
As for all the other galleries we visited...
I failed on taking photos,
but trust me.
They were pretty wonderful too!
If you're ever in Silver City for the
Red Dot Studio Tour,
What an awesome visit you had. Love the pictures girlie. I bet you are LOVING New Mexico.
ReplyDeleteIndeed! And thank you! New Mexico sure is treating me well :) (I'm loving it more and more every day!)
DeleteI absolutely love being able to see people's spaces where they are their most creative! This looks like an incredible place for a studio, complete with nature right outside the door and the colorful paintings within. Definitely sounds like an uplifting environment! :) -Ally Siwajian
ReplyDeleteAgreed! I feel that one's environment/workspace/home reveals so much about the person! I love it! Vicki's studio is definitely one of my favorites!
DeleteI can't believe you actually get to see such amazing natural beauty all the time! Holy hell. Plus, cute husband :)
