Love the scarlet of indian paintbrush contrasted with the beautiful blue and greens of the mountains, scrub oak and willows in this secluded spot near Fairplay, Colorado.

Contemporary Colorado Wildflower Painting "Summer Sunshine" by Colorado Artist Laura Reilly

"Summer Sunshine"
Original acrylic on canvas, 16 x 8 x 1.5.
Gallery wrapped, painted sides


Colorado's summer wildflowers always inspire me to paint - I love the fresh colors, and the fleeting blooms underneath the aspen trunks.  This scene is in the high mountains, just north of Crested Butte, Colorado.
