San Juan Cottage I ~ 17″x17″ Framed

San Juan Cottage I, acrylic on art board, 16″x16″ (17″x17″ includes a wood pattern floating frame), 2025

This painting is part of my new mountain cabin series. I took inspiration from one of my favorite views around Molas Pass near Silverton Colorado. The tiny wooden cabin is one of the most photographed structures in the awe inspiring San Juan Mountains. I love camping in this area in the Summer and Fall and always look forward to a stroll to the cabin or at least a quick glimpse if we are driving to our campsite or a scenic hike. I painted 4 different views of the cabin, just loosely basing it off my old photos.I set the cabin in a lush Summery landscape and I hope that each view inspires folks to head out to the mountains to explore and find an old historic cabin of their own to fall in love with. Or perhaps it can be a reminder of a memorable family stay in a mountain cottage under the vast sky filled with innumerable stars! As you scroll through the photos, take a closer look at the detail of the sky – there is a very subtle glimmer added with tiny specs of glitter. In person it is very slight but adds a touch of magic.

The painting is varnished in satin, has a signed certificate of authenticity on the back as well as a hook on the back and a wood patterned  gallery style floating frame. Limited Time Free US Shipping (value of $65).
