" AspenGlow captures that sacred moment at dusk when the entire world blushes with light. I’ve spent countless evenings watching the sun pour over the mountains of Colorado, and this painting is my tribute to that fleeting magic. It’s about serenity, movement, and gratitude — a celebration of nature’s elegance and our connection to it." —Topher Straus

"AspenGlow" by Topher Straus radiates the cinematic drama of a Colorado sunset across rolling hills, meadows, and gondola towers stretching into the glowing horizon. The composition blends vibrant orange skies with multicolored patchwork mountains, pine forests, and lush green slopes dotted with wildflowers. The iconic Aspen gondola rises through the scene, symbolizing elevation—both literal and spiritual.

Crafted in Topher’s signature digital style, the piece merges bold color gradients, stylized geometry, and painterly naturalism, immersing the viewer in a surreal yet deeply familiar Colorado landscape. From the rich detail of each flower to the warmth of the alpenglow sky, AspenGlow is both a love letter to Aspen and a universal celebration of awe and adventure.

As the flagship work for Intersect Aspen 2025, this painting sets the tone for Topher’s evolving relationship with place, memory, and emotion. It invites viewers to pause, breathe, and be present with beauty.

From iconic ski towns and mountain valleys to golden aspens and dramatic skies, each piece captures a unique expression of Colorado’s landscape.

Topher’s deep personal connection to the region—its wild nature, cultural richness, and meditative quiet—translates into bold, contemporary landscapes that resonate with collectors and adventurers alike. This collection stands as both homage and invitation: to see the world through the lens of wonder.
