The Mountains Are Calling

This bold painting of Mt Whitney and the Sierra Nevada mountains draws inspiration from the ecological ethics of Aldo Leopold, the adventures of John Muir, and the mountaineering prowess of a late friend. By painting this wild scenery with sheet music collage, saturated colors, and a bold composition, I strive to emphasize the grandeur of nature and capture the exhilarating feeling of wanderlust while also fostering a sense of solace from stress.
