Patagonia Fitz Roy

Painting of Fitz Roy in Patagonia.

Notes of Rhiannon Klee's process:

As I rebuilt the Chalten massif with paint and brush strokes, I went there. I skirted the right side of the lake and remembered the contradiction of excitement and nerves that hit me as we moved deeper into the mountains. I painted a tent at Nipo Nino and heard relentless wind bellowing against thin nylon walls. I closed my eyes and heard glacial water rush down channels of blue ice. I marked the outline of each peak and felt tiny camped at their center.

For me, this is the way to breathe life into a landscape. Explore it, then rebuild it from the heart.
