Cheesman Park, Denver, Colorado

Once upon a time, the land that now encompasses Cheesman Park and the Denver Botanical Gardens was Mount Prospect Cemetery, opened in 1858. In 1893, the city of Denver elected to turn the cemetery into a park, and needed to move 5,000 graves in the process. This project did not go completely as planned … not all bodies were removed.

All paintings in the #100daysofplace series are original, one of a kind works of art on 6”x9” 140 lb. watercolor paper. Your painting will be shipped to you mounted in an archival quality, custom-cut white mat, ready to pop in a 9”x12” frame.

A limited number of white, ready to hang, frames are available for purchase here in my shop in a separate listing.
