Jonathan Reeve Price, The Rio Grande Splits New Mexico, 2011, Aluminum Print
From the snowy mountains in northern New Mexico, the Rio Grande slides south along the rift between two continental plates, dividing the state in two, as it rolls toward El Paso, where it starts to form the border between the U.S. and Mexico.
Along the way, dams and irrigation ditches known as acequias take water out of the flow, and chipmakers such as Intel borrow the clean water and return it dirty. In the summer, the river dries to almost a puddle in some stretches.

Process
We print on aluminum, then protect the surface with a matte lamination. We attach mounting hardware to the back, and add the artist's signature on a label identifying the picture, and giving its number in the edition.
We package the print in tissue paper and extra layers of cardboard. We ship via US Priority Mail, insured.
Please allow two weeks for printing, packaging, and shipping.
When you receive your order, please check to make sure that the picture is just what you are hoping for. If you have any problem with the picture, please contact jonathanreeveprice@gmail.com. Within 14 days of delivery, we accept returns for a full refund.
These images work best without a frame. Each print comes with mounting hardware already attached to the back, so you can hang it up right away. No need for wiring, or framing.
