It reminds me of the artist Gamboro, Indian American but I don't remember her tribe (it's not a Hopi) but she makes the same kind of sculptures... and I like the way these kinds of sculptures remind us that the Earth provides food and that we have to be thankful for it.
Another place you'd find me at! I'm not as familiar with Southwestern Native American traditions though so I have a lot to learn, but I have heard of corn maidens before. Lovely background too!
Great shot, Randy. Thank for your loyalty and continuing visits over the past few weeks. I have been putting in 12-hour days six days a week at work and it's been a major effort maintains my daily posts. Have missed visiting friends' blogs...

One cool sculpture.
Very cool! You have a great Monday too, Randy.
Great scene!
Yeah it is my reflection Randy :-)
should be called the maize maiden :)
I like this art very much !
beautiful sculpture
Sheesh! Another gallery I haven't visited. Another reason for me to get down there...like a need a reason! hahaha...
I wonder if the name should be "Maize Maiden"? Just kidding. Certainly is an appropriate statue for a Native American place.
Interesting choice of sculpture to be in front of a gallery that specializes in Native American art. :)
She appears to have had a bountiful harvest. Almost planting time again!
It's a wonderful sculpture but what I really like is that building with the turquoise trim.
It is always unique at your place, Randy. Love the color and simple lines.
i like that building in the back - whether that's the gallery or something else. nice!
She's beautiful!
That's a neat sculpture of a Native American and one of the "three sisters" (corn, squash, beans).
This is such a peaceful scene.
Nice one Randy, the museum sounds like it would be tres interesting to check out.
I like the look of that sculpture - though agree with Tanya it should be called Maize:)
I've just been rummaging around on that link to Sherwoods Gallery. Wow, what a place!
Love the adobe and blue trim in the background!
I like it, it is modern and traditional at the same time...

It's a nice sculpture, I'm sure the museum is very interesting too! ;-)
What a beautiful sculpture! I'm going to check out the link.
Nice one, Randy. And the setting looks quite charming, too.
Look at the building in the background! Fantastic!
What a beautiful sculpture!! Amazing to think how long it must take to sculpt something that magnificent.
Native American art in Santa Fe is usually of high quality.
