Vogel Canyon Ceramic Art Tile
$22.00
Thirteen miles south of La Junta, the shortgrass prairie cracks open and a sandstone canyon drops away into shade. The Purgatoire River cut this seam through soft rock; springs still hold the floor of it. On the cliff walls, hands from eight hundred years ago left figures and shapes a person can still read. The ruins of an 1870s stagecoach stop sit further down the canyon road, and the stone walls of a Depression-era homestead stand on the rim where the prairie picks up again. Most days nobody walks the loop. The owls keep the cottonwoods to themselves.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
