Quiet Morning in the Shade

Painted en plein air during the Boulder Plein Air Festival, Quiet Morning in the Shade captures a herd of cows basking in the shade off Baseline Road in the early morning. This oil painting celebrates the simple beauty of rural East Boulder, Colorado in the Summer, complete with lush green fields.

This piece has been selected to be included in Plein Air Artists Colorado’s (PAAC’s) 29th Annual National Show at the Moab Arts Center from October 1, 2026 to November 15, 2026.
