SANTA FE, NEW MEXICO......
A good 4 hour drive west of Amarillo and you find your self in the heavily Spanish/Mexican influenced enclave of Santa Fe. Spanish conquistadors settled here in the 1500's and the pueblo style architecture is testimony to their legacy.
It is also the site of a Museum dedicated to the artist Georgia O'Keefe. I was so taken with it all i had to buy myself a cow head skull.... god knows how im going to get it home!!

Although O'Keefe is strongly associated with New Mexico, i was interested to learn that she had spent her formative years as an artist working as a teacher in Amarillo (1912-1918) and the landscape there influenced much of her work throughout her life.

"Texas is my spiritual home!" - O'Keefe.
