Pawnee National Grassland Ceramic Art Tile
$22.00
A piece of the high plains east of Greeley, where the Rockies fall away and the country opens. Two sandstone buttes rise about 250 feet above the prairie, the last harder pieces of an older landscape the wind hasn't carried off. The grass is short and the sky is large. From March through June the cliffs belong to the nesting raptors and the path turns back early. The rest of the year the trail walks the open mile to the base of the west butte, with the kind of wind that has nothing to push against.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
