More Native American art
More art from the James Museum of Western Art

Barb Baker and I both loved the art of Tammy Garcia
I loved the models...since I made some of antique cars as a kid.

Gypsy Vardo wagon
This post first came out Feb 13, 2012. I bring it back to you so I can share it on Sepia Saturday this week...my very own caravan made from clay. Even the lanterns, all fired together with a special wire on the lanterns that doesn't melt in the 2100 degree F glaze kiln.
The little gypsy van has been glazed, and the wheel axles glued onto the bottom. The "Dutch" opening back doors are ajar so you can imagine how living in one of these darling tiny vehicles might have been. The roof does come off, like the lid of a box, but I neglected to furnish the inside. Anyone into miniatures might have fun putting the table, bunks, cabinets and curtains into it.
And for inaccuracy sake, I also left off the various accoutrements for a driver and horse. Sorry about that, but this is just to enjoy thinking about, not planning to put it to the test.
