There’s a world of public domain and license-free photos available for use. The challenge for me is to choose ones that resonate and inspire me to paint my interpretation of them.

Nature and landscape images represent locales across the globe. So, when I discovered this image of snow-covered mountains with wildflowers in the foreground, I was determined to learn where it was.

I did a reverse image search on Google only to find that its location is somewhat of a mystery. Based on image tags, it could be in the Alps – possibly near Chamonix, France, or, the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, or, at Glacier National Park in Montana.

I couldn’t find similar pink flowers on this website identifying “Wildflowers of the Rocky Mountains,” so that leaves the Alps or Montana. Either way, the image was breathtaking.

If you happen to know this location, please share! In the meantime, learn more about this painting in the gallery.
