Hello fellow creatives. I’m delighted that you’re joining me for this Studioworks lesson.

I have loved the mountains since I was a little girl, growing up on the outskirts of Vancouver, BC. I adventure in the mountains year round and love the big skies, the jagged peaks, the silhouetted alpine trees and the trails that beckon me to keep exploring over the next hill.

In 2018, I had the pleasure of hiking in the Purcell Mountain range. I absolutely loved the rolling hills, the scraggly alpine trees and the stunning peaks. While I was on the trip, I stayed up late one night creating miniature watercolour and ink paintings for every person who was also on the retreat, as a memento of our time together in this beautiful place. These tiny paintings were the seed of an idea that has grown over the years, and that we will explore in this lesson.
