East Vail, Eagle’s Nest Wilderness, Colorado

Musk Thistle, scientific name, Asteraceae, is in the sunflower family. It’s an invasive species from Europe and Asia, which means it dominates and crowds out native plants. Ugh.

But, man, these things are cool - especially because [here’s lookin’ at you, Eagle’s Nest Wilderness] they’re taller than I am. You just stand there. Face to face with the fabulous Purple Prickles.

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.
