Description
This print is of one of my favorite and most popular glass mosaics “Cascade Canyon” which is 24″x48″ in size.
This mosaic is inspired by my trip to the Teton Mountains during July. Kyle and I hiked the Canyon/Paintbrush Loop where the mountain views were spectacular, especially from our backcountry campsite in the Northern section of Cascade Canyon near Lake Solitude. Everything was so lush and green, the wild flowers were blossoming everywhere – the blue and yellow ones stood out to me the most but the reds and pinks were equally impressive. A thunderstorm was brewing as we arrived at our campsite so we held our breath as it roared.

Following the storm a thick fog rose from the ground to fully cover the tall peaks and decrease visibility of the scenery. Just as we watched it rise, we watched the fog fall back to the ground and reveal the spectacular scenery back to us. The fog kept coming and going until it fully dispersed at sunset and we got to enjoy watching the mountains be bathed in the bright light. We observed the marmots and the picas and even saw an antelope run across the meadow. We fished in the lake, listened to the creek run past our camp as we enjoyed our supper and we slept under the stars.

This was one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited and used a variety of views and aspects that I’ve photographed to design a scene which I hoped would convey all that I loved about it.
