Lake Thun, Switzerland

We visited Interlaken, Switzerland in May of 2018 at the peak of spring wild flowers blooming on the sides of the lush green mountains that were still snow capped at the peaks. We took a boat ride on Thun Lake near by. There was a major storm brewing all around us and in the distance (that later down poured on us). The contrast of the dark clouds but bright sun, lit the beautiful clear lake up in a way that I have never seen before.

We are all spending a lot more time at home this year. Rather than being disappointed about missed opportunities, I am painting this series of watercolor landscapes as a reflection on past road trips, weekend getaways, and seasons of life when we were able to travel freely. For the month of November, I am committing (to myself mostly) to paint one watercolor landscape a day. Each painting is from one of my photographs taken while traveling. It has me feeling very nostalgic for more simple times but also grateful for past adventures, which is why I am titling this collection Looking Past Nostalgia.
