Luck is Where You Make it
Luck is Where You Make It is a San Juan Mountains rainbow print made from a classic stretch of Southern Colorado just off the Million Dollar Highway—a place known for autumn light, weather that changes fast, and valleys that turn gold when the aspens peak. I’ve heard different stories about how the highway got its name—old mining history, mineral wealth, or simply the way the landscape glows in fall—but standing here in October, it makes sense either way.
A storm came in hard with wind and rain, the kind of weather that makes it tempting to call it and drive away. I took shelter in my car and waited it out. And like it often does in the mountains, the moment the storm loosened its grip, the light changed completely—soft breaks in the clouds, brighter color on the hillsides, and then a rainbow appearing in what felt like the perfect spot for the frame.
I did get lucky, but only because I stayed. If you’re looking for Colorado mountain wall art or a San Juan Mountains rainbow print that captures that post-storm calm and the feeling of autumn optimism, Luck is Where You Make It brings a little weather-earned beauty into a home or office.
