About The Artwork
"This curious world we inhabit...is more wonderful than convenient; more beautiful than useful; it is more to be admired and enjoyed than use." Henry David Thoreau "God saw all that he had made, and it was very good." Genesis 1:31 These words capture something of the lonely mystery found on a naked mountaintop or deep in a secluded valley. It is this experience of something raw and beautiful, repeated, soaked up and integrated into oneself that I seek to represent in my drawing of the hiker. It is aspirational-- a portrait of the man I wish one day to be. And it is meditative. Similar to the experience on the peak of a mountain, the act of drawing transports the mind to a place of quiet reflection.
