This conquistador helmet was one of several on display at the Albuquerque Museum of Art and History. This particular style is called a burgonet. Pencil in moleskine sketchbook.The other sketch is of a wooden carving in the courtyard of Church Street Cafe. It's an example of the folk art called Santo, ie. wooden carving of saints or other religious figures. This one is Saint Francis, I believe. Pen and ink in moleskine.

Your Santo sketch is wonderful. Sorry you didn't get to sketch more but these were worth the time.
Both are nice, especially the Santo. Glad you found time for a few rather than none.
Great sketches, Joanne!
Very nice renderings. Hopefully I'll get to that Georgia O'Keefe Museum someday!
