Did your grandma have a modest little embroidery decoration in her dining room? I can nearly guarantee if your grandparents were a product of rural agriculture that the answer is, yes. This yellow pillow is based on 1960s embroidery and the red is made to complement the colors in the collection. These are available on my website along with others that will be perfect to mix and match. . . . #giftideas #rurallife #ruralamerica #country #agriculture #gobuyart #supportlocalartists #coloradoartist #howdarling #currentdesignsituation #anthropologiehome #westelm #pillows #homedecor #westernart

When I was a kid my uncle told us yucca plants are edible, which I am sure they are, but my brother @brandon_hill11 cousin and I stockpiled the blooms in our fort like doomsday prep pets. We kept them hidden in jars under an old pickup bench seat. When we went to get them out, a mouse was in the hole and that was the end of that fort for me… I love blooming yucca, I love what a treat they are for cattle, I love the spiky leaves and the towering flowers, I love that they are part of home’s landscape. This is one of the prints available on canvas on my website… . . . #yucca #westernart #plantsofinstagram #praire #cattle #cows #agriculture #homeontherange #gobuyart #artistsoninstagram #anthropologiehome #anthropologie

Today was quite rough and I don’t want to fully get into it…but being an adult is really hard sometimes and when I am reduced to a blubbering pile of myself crying on my bed it doesn’t seem like I’ve come all that far from adolescence… but I have… maybe not tonight… a dear childhood friend @simsduke sent me this picture and it was taken in a life changing moment… I won ‘Best of Show’ at the league art show and it seriously changed the course of my life… sometimes we crave the validation that we are on the right track and sometimes it comes in the form of a giant blue ribbon and sometimes it comes in the form of a perfect mentor at the exact right time… or red cowboy boots or a big commission order… look at this little girl… so unsure of herself and so proud to be noticed… . . . #artist #artistsoninstagram #bestofshow #1999 #throwback #lifechanging #oilpastel #reallife #emo #coloradoartists #validation #howdarling #chasingdreams #loveyouself #heartbreak

Part of adulthood is to think of those who came before, what their hopes and dreams were, what made them happy, or sad and compare them to who we knew of them. We get just a sliver of life to share with other generations and who they were as children will remain a mystery. This is my grandma Mern on the back of a horse, she was 10 or 11. Of course I took some creative liberties but I am certain she would approve. . . . . #westernart #horse #horsebackriding #trickriding #1940s #howdarling #artistsoninstagram #coloradoartist #rurallife #country #countrygirl #grandma #redshoes #polkadot #whitehorse

More map abstract… I was once told my pallet is way too saturated by someone I respect and it hurt. Feeling like I can’t choose the colors I am drawn to is defeating. But here is this piece that I love and it is all things bright and rich and deeply personal. Everyone has an opinion, choose carefully of the ones you will listen to. . . . #abstractart #abstract #howdarling #color #coloradoartist #acrylic #mountainfair #rurallife #farm #homestead #individual #yellow #red #pink #buyart

When I create #abstract work I like to base it on something very real to me. @andersonranchartscenter learning from the incredible @beckysuss I spent my time reflecting on my grandma’s life. This piece is based on the map of my grandparent’s farm. I spent an enormous amount of time on this farm as a child. I am thrilled my cousin and his family will be raising their wild boys here. @westerncouture @nik.benton . . . . #abstractart #thatsdarling #rurallife #grandparents #farm #abstractart #coloradoartist #patterndesign #howdarling #artlicensing #mountainfair @beckysuss
