Happy 4th of July! 

 

Did you know? The Fourth of July commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence. It was initially adopted by Congress on July 2, 1776, but then it was revised and the final version was adopted two days later.

Andy and Aaron Sanchez

at the Calgary Stampede


 The Calgary Stampede, or "The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth", is celebrating it's 100th year! For 10 days, starting this Friday, people will gather to enjoy the rodeo, parade,  concerts, shows,
 exhibitions, and shopping! 

 

 
 

In honor of the Calgary Stampede's Centennial, Andy and Aaron Sanchez created this gorgeous 7ft table they have called "Stampede" It is made of Alligator Juniper and inlaid with several types of marble & turquoise.

News

James Ayers Western Art has been busy! He has 2 brand new paintings "His Bountiful Realm" and "Joyful Spirit".   
 

   

"Joyful Spirit" shows a young Hopi woman enjoying a laugh. 
 The elaborate hairdo was called "squash blossom hair" and was worn by unmarried Hopi maidens to signify maturity and readiness to marry. The hair was wrapped around a curved piece of wood and then the wood was removed leaving behind the round shape. This hairstyle is also referred to as "butterfly whorls."
