Broomfield, Ruth Roberts Open Space

I’ve always loved running the trails in Broomfield, especially in the fall. As the grasses dry out, they turn golden and brittle, whispering and crackling in the wind — like the landscape is alive and speaking.

One of my favorite spots is the Ruth Roberts Open Space at Dillon and Hwy 287. In autumn, there’s a pumpkin patch nearby that you might recognize — a quiet reminder of the season.

I wanted to capture the beauty of those wild, waving grasses — their movement, their texture, their subtle color shifts. This piece is my stitched interpretation of that simple, sacred space.
