This footage is from October 2020, from one of my first arrays into Big Bend Ranch State Park to make cyanotypes. In truth though, it was the other way around: I made cyanotypes so that I could be in Big Bend.

Big Bend Ranch is basically the river, huge vistas, and a road running through it. The river IS the border here. Not that nature cares.

In Big Bend you camp under pitch black, star-filled skies in complete silence next to the roaring river. You wake up seeing the sun rise over towering boulders. Whenever I was sleeping there, often completely alone in an empty campground, I felt so deeply at home. I never wanted to leave.

It being 2020, Big Bend was my refuge from craziness. To think that craziness is now coming for Big Bend brings up rage bigger than I have felt in a while.

Knowing the terrain, I have no idea how a wall could ever get put in there. But I guess insanity wont stop at anything. How much would one have to get paid to bulldoze the Big Bend? I couldn’t even do it with a gun to my head.

This footage is from 8 October 2020. Making cyanotypes alongside the Rio Grande and developing the prints in the river, then drying them on the grass. Also: amazing vistas and bendy roads with jaw dropping landscapes behind them. Big Bend = Big Love. Keep your bulldozers out.

opened yesterday!
High Frontier is a new hotel/resort, situated on 320 acres of high desert mountains in Far West Texas, overlooking canyons, rangeland, and rugged landscapes. They host private events, meetings, and celebrations in contemporary style and consummate seclusion. They are right across from the Chihuahuan Desert Research Institute, on the road between Alpine and Fort Davis.
All of my Marfa and Big Bend cyanotypes will be on view and for sale here. Watch this space for more details, and head over to to book a stay.

All the creosote cyanotypes made in Big Bend in 2020 together! They are not as small as they look from a distance, although that IS a giant wall :-))

On view today for a last time, closing party at between 6-9pm.

The desert, and the smell of creosote in the rain, is one of those to-die-for smells that immediately triggers a cascade of memories and good feelings for me.

It’s not too late to catch the show at Tonight until 9:30pm!
