The warm oranges and cream colors hug the Telluride landscape
Each moment the scene changes without ever losing sight of the same ridge line
The deep earthy colors warm your soul and lure you in
Black Bear Pass etched in the mountainside
Entices anyone possessing an ounce of adventure to climb its terrain.
Telluride proudly displays its history in the mountains above
The old town of Tomboy, a mining town, now crumbling slowly
Showing a hint of what life would have been like for its former inhabitants.
The warmth and comfort you feel
And unexplainable solace that comes
From being surrounded by peak after peak of rocky terrain
As ribbons of rosy clay peek out among the trees.
Embraced by a town so endearing, it seems almost cliché
That a beautiful bride and her groom should embark upon their own journey
Aboard a Land Rover Defender 110
To emblazon their own trail
Destiny unknown.
The only known fact, at this point, is that their history
Much like the timeless beauty of Telluride
Will remain forever etched in the hillside.
This wedding experience was unlike no other I had ever encountered. I fell in love with the place and the people of the town. I pass on my love of the beauty, the only way I know how...
Colors from left to right:
Tomboy Brown, Rosy Clay, Land Rover White,
Telluride Orange, Mountain Sunset, and Mesa Verde Cream
I love it! And I love the colors you created. Telluride is one of the most beautiful places on the planet and I'm so happy you were able to take that beauty home with you to share with others. Now....what can I find to paint??
