Snow on Garden of the Gods Front Range Ceramic Art Tile
$22.00
Red sandstone the colour of rust and embers, lifted out of the high plains by the same uplift that built the Front Range. Garden of the Gods is the city park of Colorado Springs. Charles Elliott Perkins' family gave it to the city in 1909 with the only condition that it stay free, and it has. In winter, snow settles into the cracks and ledges and the rocks show twice as red. The Cathedral Spires keep their colour under it. Pikes Peak holds the western edge of the view. The locals walk the paved loop before the sun is fully up, when the wind is still and the rock is the brightest thing for miles.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
