Mission San Francisco de Asís, called Dolores after the lake that once stood nearby. Founded in 1776, the same year as the Declaration of Independence. The little adobe chapel was finished in 1791. Four-foot walls, redwood beams lashed with rawhide. It survived 1906 when the city around it did not. Inside, a painted ceiling carries Ohlone basket patterns. Next door, the larger basilica from 1918. The cemetery out back is one of two left in San Francisco. Most days the chapel is quiet enough to hear the door close.

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