Sorrow Part II
A pair of Canada geese glide along El Rio de Nuestra Senora de Dolores, River of Our Lady of Sorrows, or as it's now simply known, the Dolores. Here sunset reflects off of The Palisade, a dramatic escarpment soaring a half-mile above the river into the dark desert sky. The Palisade and its surrounding Wilderness Study Area have become the centerpiece of a campaign to enact durable protections for millions of acres of vulnerable landscapes across the Colorado Plateau.
This Special Edition photograph is limited to total production of five prints. Each is hand numbered and signed by the artist.

About This Project
Colorado Wildlands Project
About a third of Colorado’s public lands are administered by the Bureau of Land Management, an organization with the mission to “to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.” Yet only 8 percent of Colorado’s BLM lands have permanent conservation protections. Areas at risk include a half million acres of Wilderness Study Areas and over two million acres of additional wilderness quality lands which are critical for climate adaptation and ecosystem resilience.
The Colorado Wildlands Project aims to address this disparity by advocating for the preservation of Western Colorado’s wild places including the Dolores River canyon country, the sagebrush steppe of the Dinosaur region, and Grand Junction’s iconic Book Cliffs.
