About the work

There’s nothing like the delight of a hike under a vast blue sky and an afternoon spent following the clouds to their destination. There’s a special feeling of peace to be inhaled, soaked up, and captured on afternoons like these. This painting captures the essence of what I love about getting outdoors—the sweeping calm of a big breezy sky that gathers its energy from the wind, feeling connected to the land, and finding beauty in the realness of an "ordinary" view.
