Just got this in and had to share:
"LOVE LOVE LOVE the saddle sketch. I want one. (The sketch, I have 2 saddles) Your character hasn't been hangin' out with that guy from NY has he? Spitzer, is that his name? X-Guvnor. Just wondering, Amber Glow is a great name considering your recent art projects. Good job."

As I mentioned in this morning's post, we were awaiting the bus back to the train station on December 20, 2006 and this guy rode into the plaza at Cerohahui. I immediately went over and asked if I could take a couple shots of his saddle. Absolutely love those tapaderos (stirrup guards).
Photographer Chet Provorse took this great shot deep in Mexico (I've forgotten what state he was in, maybe Jalisco?). Love the custom made machete scabbard. Muy Mexicano! And just like Mickey would love
