One of our amazing finds during our Southwest travels recently was Elizabeth Jose. It was a chance meeting out in the high desert of northwestern New Mexico. Just as Tim and I were departing Chaco Culture National Historic Park we met the most lovely lady who just happens to be a British fine artist and a lover of Airstreams who lives in New Mexico. During our meeting we allowed Elizabeth a photo shoot of our Airstream. Tim 'worked it' and maneuvered the Airstream into the perfect position for the shoot.
During the shoot we had a great conversation and realized that we had friends in common. Elizabeth Jose has previously had one of her paintings on the cover of Airstream Life (Fall 2013). A little over a week later after leaving Chaco Elizabeth contacted us with photo of an almost complete Airstream painting ... our Airstream at Chaco. The painting is fabulous! I love how she captured the softness of the desert, the reflection of sage on our rig and Fajada Butte in the background. Since then the painting has been completed and she has it on her website.
Just recently Elizabeth contacted me again. She is releasing her 2015 - Airstream Calendar and wanted to let us know that her painting of our Airstream made the cover!
Please click the link below to take a look at the calendar and purchase one for that special and unique Holiday gift. Also while you are there browse through her paintings of Airstreams, Vintage Trucks, Portraits, Still Life, Nudes and Landscapes.

Tim and I are tickled and honored about this painting and the calendar. Elizabeth has an amazing talent and vision that she is able to put on canvas. Enjoy . . .
