Experience the rugged beauty of the West with this black-and-white print featuring paintbrush, one of the region’s most iconic and captivating wildflowers. Scattered across open hillsides, alpine meadows, and forest edges, paintbrush adds bold bursts of color to the spring and summer landscape with its fiery, brush-like blooms.

Easily recognized by its vibrant bracts—specialized leaves that surround the small, hidden flowers—paintbrush often steals the show. These bracts, ranging from crimson and coral to orange and pink, are frequently mistaken for the flowers themselves and help attract pollinators to the plant. Paintbrush commonly grows alongside lupine and arrowleaf balsamroot, adding rich layers of color to the mountainsides.

Beyond its beauty, paintbrush plays an important ecological role. As a semi-parasitic plant, it forms beneficial connections with the roots of neighboring species, drawing nutrients while contributing to the diversity and resilience of its surroundings.

This thoughtfully crafted print captures the bold silhouette and wild spirit of paintbrush—a lasting symbol of the vibrant energy, interconnectedness, and enduring character of the Western landscape.
