Brihilda Coriz lives in the Santo Domingo Pueblo where she designs and creates the clothing she was selling at the annual Arts and Crafts Festival over Labor Day weekend. She mentioned that she and her husband used to work together, making jewelry. After 25 happy years of marriage, she sadly revealed that she lost her husband five years ago It was then that she began to make the clothing that you see in the photos. Her warm and friendly personality was as sunny as the garment you see hanging behind her. I promised to send her copies of these photos after I return to Minnesota.
beau portrait et sa veste qu'elle vend est tres belle
ReplyDeleteAnd you bought one of these too...?
ReplyDeleteWhat a very nice lady. The top portrait is just great.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful portrait Kate, she has a sweet face, sad story, but she seems to be doing ok!
ReplyDeleteThese clothes have a distinctly Southwester flair. Let's hope that a sweat shop in the third world does not start flooding the market with them to compete with her unique designs.
ReplyDeleteWhat a charming lady. I like her patterns and of course I love the boots in the previous post. MB
ReplyDeleteGreat portrait, I am not an expert in this kind of wares, but I trust your word...
ReplyDeleteNice shots Kate!
ReplyDeleteGreat portraits of a very beautiful and talented woman.
ReplyDeleteI'll be scrolling down through all of your wonderful Santa Fe pics! Been out with some knee surgery - now in recovery. Doing OK.
