Even at the height of summer, there's still snow on the ground in the High Sierras. My pastel painting captures the contrast of the harsh, snow-covered mountains against the abundant warmth of the sunstruck trees. This plein air painting was done on a pack trip in the Ansel Adams Wilderness Area on the eastern slope of the Sierras.
