A gorgeous fall day in the alpine. As though the berries themselves weren’t enough of a gift, the view of the whole lake valley just opens up and carries you northward. The ground was covered in low-bush cranberries, blueberries, and crowberries. Picker’s choice!

About the Artist: Stephanie Ryan

Stephanie hopes her paintings bring people light and happiness while drawing attention and inspiration to conserve places that need it most.

“I am so thankful to have had many unique and inspiring work and adventure opportunities in local and wild locations! Exploring a trail or coastal beach with our pup Daagi, touring a friend’s newly planted garden, or embarking on a weeks-long expedition – all bring so much joy in the element of a connection and shared experience of something special. I’m hoping we get to meet you and share a story sometime – I say ‘we’ as you often will find me accompanied by an absolutely incredible, witty, and joyful person (my husband, Aric that is helping make my life as an artist more than I could ever imagine. We hope to see you on the trail, in the mountains, on a river, or wherever our paths should meet! Thank you for visiting my website!”
