Christ in the Desert Monastery, New Mexico

Christ in the Desert is the most remote monastery in the western hemisphere. Located in a beautiful desert valley far from major population centers it is a place of great peace. Here beavers swim, coyote play and hawks nest in the cliffs above, as gentle winds brings refreshing breezes. At night as the final rays of the sun fade in the west, the sky fills with the light of a million stars creating a ceiling above that makes even the Sistine Chapel look humble.

Ceiling of Lights print

The print only option is the most affordable route to go. It is just what it sounds like: prints on high quality archival photographic paper without any mounting or framing. One of the benefits of going this route is that you can bring them to your local frame shop to have the matted and framed exactly as you like. Prints are also great if you are in a hurry as they usually arrive in 5-7 days from the time of order.

Plaque

This mounting option is by far our most popular format. It is both durable and beautiful. It allows the images to reveal an almost three dimensional quality creating the impression of actually being there. This is because there is almost no glare or reflection such as you find with even the most expensive types of glass. An additional benefit is that the artwork is very durable and can even be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. The artwork also resists fading because it has UV protection. When you order a plaque from us, they arrive ready to hang.

You can order prints in various formats such as print only, plaque, framed plaque, acrylic or matted. Upon special request, we also offer our prints in canvas.
