From the Artist:
In October my husband and I fulfilled a lifetime dream of traveling to Nepal to trek in the Himalayas. We were on the trail for fourteen days, hiking from village to village surrounded by the most spectacular mountains we have ever seen. We made our goal, reaching Everest Base Camp at about 17,600 feet, and it was truly a life-changing experience. Of course, we took lots of photos and for this month’s Art Walk we have selected a few to share that we hope will convey a sense of our incredible adventure. Below is a foretaste of what we’ll have on view at West Seattle Cellars this Thursday:
