Custom Commissioned Painting
"Pikes Peak Perfection"
44 x 62
Original acrylic on canvas,
This was a fun painting to create for my customers! They wanted the perfect view of Pikes Peak,
with a little snow on it and our classic blue sky with the clouds we get in the afternoon.
Some wildflowers, and a little path to invite you into the scene, and Pikes Peak welcoming you.
A success I think!

Contemporary Palette Knife Painting "Lovely Lilacs" by Colorado Artist Laura Reilly"

"Lovely Lilacs" - purchase infooriginal acrylic on gessoed panel10" x 8" x 3/4"
I know it's really spring when the lilacs are blooming! I want to fill my arms with
the scented boughs, and revel in their delightful fragrance.
this painting has black painted sides, for a dramatic contrast to the painting. Palette knife technique adds rich texture to the subtle colors of the paint. This painting would be lovely on a shelf, as well as on the wall - a reminder to keep spring in your heart all year long!

Winter Plein Air Painting by Colorado Contemporary Artist Laura Reilly
I've been longing to get outside for a little plein air painting,
and yesterday was too nice a day to pass up!
Up on Mesa Rd., there's a tiny little piece of Open Space,
a beautiful, dry wild landscape.
with gorgeous views of the Peak.
Even though it was only 35 degrees out, I was in the sun and layered up -
long underwear, painting shirt, fleece vest, fleece jacket - so I was toasty!
It's been a long time since I painted with gloves on though.
The thin magic gloves work well.
a winter's day - plein air sketch, 12 x 12
I still haven't mastered the selfie, but I'm working on it !
