I can understand the inspiration you might get from Santa Fe. This piece captures the beauty and simplicity of Santa Fe like few I have seen.

The mundane ordinariness of this piece belies its striking success. The smooth roundness of the stone wall as it recedes into warm shadow, the contrasting white of the drapes with hints of cool lavenders and light blues and grays, rewards the eye willing to linger. The cool cast shadows from the horizontals of the window panes create a rhythmic drumbeat, the dense flower arrangement rewarding the eye with a final splash of color carefully laid in and contrasting beautifully with the harshness of all that sunlit stone.
