This contemporary landscape painting captures Emerald Bay in the early morning, when the light carries a sense of optimism - the same kind of hope we feel at the trailhead of a strenuous hike. Painted on wood panel, the natural wood grain shines through in a geometric, intuitive framing, creating a dialogue between organic and constructed space.
Lake Tahoe is a place of breathtaking beauty known worldwide, yet it is also highly impacted by its role as an international travel destination. For me, it has always been home terrain - my backyard. Growing up in the Sierra Nevada foothills just below Tahoe, the lake was where I learned to swim and fish, where I camped for the first time, and where I set out on my earliest big hikes. If we all approached our public lands and natural spaces as if they were our own backyards, perhaps the vibrant blue hue we have all come to love could remain true for generations to come.
Emerald Bay is also part of the ancestral homelands of the Washoe people, the original stewards of this region. Their deep relationship with the land offers enduring lessons in reciprocity, respect, and care - principles we can all adopt and reclaim as we learn to reimagine our human connection to the natural world. This painting is both a tribute to the beauty of Tahoe and an invitation to begin again with that same morning sense of possibility.
The original painting was made using oil, acrylic, gouache, and pastel on wood panel.
