"Suddenly, laid out beneath your feet are the icy waters of the lake — deep blue in the shade, bright aquamarine in sunlight — while high above you at the far end of the lake, the twin spires of Dragontail and Colchuck Peaks seem to crowd out the very sky..."
This is just a snippet of the description in WTA for this beauty of a hike here in Washington State. The brightness and depth of this lake truly made it one of my favorite hikes, and of our good friends who moved away.
I painted this as a going away present for dear friends, ones we were blessed to hike to gorgeous places with, camp with, support one another, cry with, and rejoice in the beauties of life.
If you could have a painting of anything as a gift, what would you ask for?
