Rebecca’s love of the mountains started at an early age, full of wonder standing as a teenager atop Mt. Langley or backpacking through John Muir Wilderness with her family, an annual tradition. Visiting these places always feels like returning home. Her paintings are imbued with both appreciation and nostalgia for these beautiful, fleeting moments. The unrelenting passage of time, both in her own life and in the life of these rapidly changing places has compelled her to paint. These paintings, or love letters, are a way to express her gratitude and in some ways to say good-bye. In painting these places she stays connected and she hopes you do as well.
