Being from a country that has the majestic Himalayan range, trekking became a natural choice, even though she took it up much later in life. Painting this has vicariously given her the same amount of joy, the freezing chill in her bones, the sense of accomplishing great heights after long, arduous days of climbing, the sheer beauty of a daybreak while camping.. it all came alive through the days that it took her to finish this work.
