Bridal Veil Falls Telluride San Juans Ceramic Art Tile

At the back of Telluride's box canyon, where the road and the river both end, Bridal Veil Falls comes down in a single white veil, 365 feet, the tallest free-falling waterfall in Colorado. Above the lip, a small wooden powerhouse from 1907 still stands, still works, still pulls electricity from the same water that has been falling since the canyon was cut. In winter the whole face freezes blue and the ice climbers come. In June it is loud enough to hear from town.

Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
