The beauty of Taos and Santa Fe captured with exquisite mastery by 20 original, exhibition-quality drawings by a leading architect

Between 1915 and 1917 the Russian composer, Sergei Prokofiev wrote a series of twenty piano pieces. While playing them for a gathering of friends, the poet Konstantin Balmont wrote a sonnet which entitled Mimolyotnosti which Kira Nikolayevna would translate as Visions fugitives.

Inspired by these dazzling miniatures, I have assembled a jewel box containing twenty individual felt-tip drawings on watercolor paper capturing fugitive visions of Taos and Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Few places in the world have such a deeply rooted relationship between the natural and the man-made. Towering above Taos are the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, home to many Native American peoples, casting a mystical shadow on the ancient settlement below.
