This Artist’s Work Brings Colorado Magic To Your Home
WHO: Kristen Ross, a Boulder-based artist who uses an approach to rendering color and light inspired by the impressionist and post-impressionist movements to capture Colorado sceneries she experiences while hiking and camping.
WHAT: An instant mood lifter, Ross’ feed is awash with vibrant colors that convey the sense of wonder the artist feels when exploring high-country settings firsthand.
WHY: You’ll feel the joy that Colorado’s landscapes bring to her life. “When we encounter a place in person, it feels more real and vibrant than a photo can capture,” says Ross, who augments images of completed canvases with videos of her painting process from start to finish.
