ABOUT

DANIELLE LANSLOTS is a contemporary landscape painter

based in Boulder, Colorado

My paintings are contemplative reflections of the natural world that, through their moody, misty atmospheres evoke what might be an existential experience. The poetic and contemplative ambiance of my work is analogous to my painting process: every step of the process is taken with utmost care and presence.

I collect earth pigments around the American southwest, often in the form of soils and rocks, and mull them into artist-grade watercolor and oil paints. I then use textured brushstrokes to create landscapes that dance between abstractionism and realism.

I am most inspired by the quiet, contemplative aspect of human creativity and how when that is embodied by the artist, seems to awaken the very same experiences within the viewer. In that way, my work is a study of the relationship between human vulnerability, as it intersects with spirituality and nature.
