Colorado Springs is 6 hours from Santa Fe. We went the scenic route, via San Luis where we had lunch in the convenient Coffee House Cafe. From left is John, Judy, our daughter Christine, Judy Ekstrom and son-in-law Rick Munoz.Last weekend was the Indian Market, and our aim was to see as much artwork as possible.
Judy Wise is a treasure to view art with, she has an eye for finding great works and then can tell you easily what makes them so good. One high point of our trip was the first day, on Canyon Road in the Winterowd Fine Art Gallery. She led us to three works by Don Quade, large, colorful mixed media panels based on journaling. Above, Judy Ekstrom and Judy Wise view "Journal of the Butterfly," 48" x 72".
Here they're viewing two 48" x 48" panels by Don Quade, "Journaling July" and "Meadow."
She led us into another room with works by Michelle William from Houston, not the gorgeous large yellow paintings but the two smaller plexi-framed paintings. 
She was very taken with those works by Michelle.
We got another look at one of Michelle's works on our way out.
And when we got back to our motel we discovered that Judy had purchased one of Michelle's mixed media on metal paintings.Be sure to see Judy Wise's blog for more information.
The next day we went straight to the Plaza to view the Indian Market booths. More about this later.I want to thank Judy and John, as well as Chris and Rick and Judy Ekstrom, for a marvelous, unforgettable time.
