Larimer Square at twilight Denver Metro Ceramic Art Tile

One block of Victorian brick and cast-iron storefronts, kept off the wrecking ball in 1965 by a woman named Dana Crawford. Between 14th and 15th, the old façades hold the line. Above the street, the strung lights run cornice to cornice. The sky goes cobalt, the bulbs come up, and for about half an hour they share the evening. By full dark the block belongs to the bulbs, and to the slow movement of people who came down for dinner.

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