DescriptionBillowing clouds hover above the iconic shiprock Southwest of Shiprock, NM. The shiprock is on the Navajo Nation. Rain is streaming from the clouds in the far mid center of the print. The high desert plains leading toward Shiprock emphasize the vastness of space and the drama of the landscape. The formation is in the center of the four corners region and plays a significant role in Navajo religion, mythology and tradition. - Judith Kendall, I.S.A., AM
