That Mountain was one of the first works in the Liberation series and marked my first experience working with oil — created at the beginning of my return to active art-making during my 2025 sabbatical.
The mountain embodies the tension between beauty and difficulty. From a distance, it appears lush and inviting; up close, it becomes dense, uneven, and resistant. The unfamiliarity of oil mirrored this terrain, demanding patience, surrender, and a willingness to learn through doing.
Rather than depicting triumph, the work captures a moment of decision — standing at the base of something demanding and choosing to climb without certainty of what lies beyond. It speaks to commitment, to entering unfamiliar ground emotionally and materially, trusting that something different waits beyond the ascent.
