E.J. Cous House

Four of us artists took a painting trip to Taos, New Mexico in mid October, 2009. We painted in the Cous Museum one morning with Ron Rencher, a famous artist. This painting is a side view of the front entrance of the museum. E.J Cous settled in Taos in 1920's moved from New Year. He was one of the "Taos 7" artists in his time. Burney, the husband of Cous's granddaughter gave us a tour of the museum. We got to visit all the rooms including Cous' studio, workshop, etc. It was amazing to see the original studio setup of an old master. Yeap, he did have a big northern window with lots of lights in his studio.
