This is one of the two camel tapestries Lee brought back from India. The other is blue and green, not as dramatic in contrast, but really beautiful. I've put a few detail close-ups on the blog. You can find them with this link: pieces of the camel. Sorry about the black interference in the corner. That's the TV screen.
Here's the fourth piece of the camel tapestry from India. Next time I'll post the picture of the whole camel. It's pretty cool looking with all of the embroidery and detailed stitching. I love the colors!
It shouldn't be too hard to guess what this is. Look at all the pieces of different things that are stitched into it.
Here's a piece of a gorgeous tapestry Lee brought home from India in November. I love the colors. The shape is also really nice. It's a bit abstract. You can see clearly that it's a camel, but it's not entirely clear what some of the things are on its back. I'll post some more pieces over the next few days, and then - finally - the picture of what the camel actually looks like (that is, unless I forget to!).
I took this photo inside the Phippen Museum (on Highway 89, 7 miles north of Prescott, so says their web site). The colors are beautiful, and look at the theme - dinosaurs! I don't remember anything about who made the piece or when. I wish I'd taken note.
This exhibit was equally striking. Here's what happens to culture. What does it mean?
And here's a cow sculpture. I don't think I was totally fascinated with it, but it was something to take a picture of. It was probably against the rules to take pix inside, but out here it was ok.
Another shot from in front of the museum.
I like this anachronistic composition, and especially the green of the wagon.
I probably thought the name of this bank was very strange when I took the picture. I've just looked it up online and it's real enough. The Fifth Bank and Third Bank merged in 1908 and didn't have the sense to come up with a better name than that, but hey. If I had their money, I wouldn't worry about it, either.
