Artist Note:
This was one of those hikes we weren’t really prepared for - we set out in beachwear and sandals, laughing as we passed people in full hiking gear. I remember the heat, the dust, the quiet sound of our steps on the trail. And then this moment: a hut, humble and beautiful, tucked into the earth like it had grown there.
I worked on this painting slowly, trying to honour the way the structure belonged to the land around it. The washes came first - soft, dry, sun-warmed - then the detail followed. It’s a small piece, but it holds a lot: a sense of freedom, of being unburdened, of sharing something quietly joyful with someone you love.
