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.

 I still haven't mastered the selfie, but I'm working on it !

CONTEMPORARY COLORADO WINTER LANDSCAPE PAINTING "Snow Flurries" by COLORADO ARTIST LAURA REILLY

"SNOW FLURRIES" original acrylic on panel, 8" x 12". Gold plein air frame. $195.



A stop in a snowy park in winter, flurries of snow swirling around us.

We used to live just down the street from Shooks Run Park, near downtown.  We often walked in this park in the winter - beautiful in snow, as you see.
