About the work

For many years I lived in California’s Bay Area, and one of my favorite places to hike was Rancho San Antonio, a stunning nature preserve tucked away in the heart of Silicon Valley. It was always a magical experience to climb the hills of Rancho, feeling like I was in the middle of nowhere, only to be rewarded with magnificent views of the surrounding cities and bay. With this piece I hoped to capture the sweeping grandeur of the endless skies and rolling hills, an oasis from the busy world below.
