Contributor's Note

I took one painting and drawing course during college and courses in watercolor and charcoal drawing for fun­—mainly during summer camps, sometimes painting scenes from a seat on a boat or a kayak. I hope to take watercolor lessons when I retire from being a Pediatrician at the Daly City Medical Center.

We were in the Tuolumne Meadows of Yosemite for a “hiking” vacation. I had just torn a knee cartilage, so I had a “sitting” vacation with watercolors instead. I was experimenting with how to depict shade and sunlight while playing with the intense colors in the scene. I tried to portray the visual impact of the forest, without painting hundreds of trees.
