“Mountain Geometry” is part of my Uncovered series.  The inspiration came from two very different but deeply connected places for me: the striking, angular design of the Denver Art Museum by architect Daniel Libeskind, and a quiet, awe-filled morning I spent camping in the Elk Mountain Range near Crested Butte, Colorado.

Waking up to that scene—the cool air, the soft light on the jagged peaks—it was one of those moments that stays with you. It felt both wild and intentional, like it had been sculpted with purpose by God. That same feeling strikes me when I see the museum—how structure and creativity can coexist in such a bold way. In this painting, I wanted to blend those experiences, letting the geometry of architecture and the organic rhythm of the mountains speak to each other.

In my Uncovered series, I intentionally leave parts of the birch panel exposed—it’s not just a design choice, but a metaphor. To me, it represents the courage it takes to be open and honest about what we’re going through. Life isn’t always easy, and sometimes showing our raw, unpolished selves can feel vulnerable. But I believe that in those exposed places, we find connection, understanding, and healing. When we allow ourselves to be seen by those we trust, we create space for shared stories, support, and growth.

The original has sold but prints are still available in my Etsy Shop.
