When I think about the southwest, I feel drawn to thoughts of the stunning National Parks, the vast skies, and the warm earth tones. In my mind, the region feels relaxed yet refined. I dream of taking a long road trip, stopping off first in New Mexico at the El Rey Court for a few days, then working my way north, through tiny, off-the-beaten path towns throughout Arizona. Next I’d head to Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park in Utah for a few days of camping, before heading to Salt Lake City, then west to Reno and Lake Tahoe. These places in the southwest call for you to slow down, and really savor all that surrounds you.
The creatives whom I talked with about their states seemed to all be drawn to the natural world around them, feeling the creative pull from the other artists that have decided to call the southwest home. “I think part of it is the gorgeous natural surroundings — you can’t help but be inspired by the rugged mountains up north and the red rock desert down south,” shares Eva Jorgensen of Sycamore Co.
Scroll through and get to know some of the southwest’s creatives that are savoring every bit of their home states. We’d love to hear what inspires you most about the southwest. —Erin
