Tuff Buckwheat

The Eastern Sierra is a wonderland of wild buckwheats, and many species are found near the Sherwin Grade between Bishop and Long Valley. Most of this area is covered with Bishop Tuff, the cooled pyroclastic flow that erupted from the Long Valley Caldera around 760,000 years ago. Kennedy buckwheat, Eriogonum kenedyi, is easy to miss when not in bloom. But the way this one flowered in profusion over the Bishop tuff captivated me.

About the Fine Art Photos

Premium fine art canvas wraps are printed directly onto museum-quality canvas using high-quality archival inks. The canvas used is specially coated, ph neutral and archival, and comes in surfaces that are glossy, lustre (near-matte surface), or metallic for a radiant glow.

Metal prints are made by infusing dyes directly onto specially coated, .045 aluminum sheets that are durable, scratch resistant, and easy to clean. They are waterproof and weatherproof, but should not be displayed in direct sunlight. They come with 1/8″ rounded corners and are ready to hang.

Prints take 15-20 days to process, then will be shipped.

Please contact me for custom sizes, display options, or any other questions. Thank you!
