Referred to as Snowmageddon, 2023 was a record-breaking snow year in South Lake Tahoe. The walls around our driveway were 15 feet tall, and it just kept coming. This painting was inspired by blue and white walks at Fallen Leaf Lake, the clouds on occasion gifting a pink sunset over the water.
One of three in my Winter Sun series. Each title is inspired by a lyric in the song Winter Sun by Mogli.

Intro
Aloha, I’m Aubrey, an artist exploring the wild west of consciousness and California, capturing the beauty I find in oil paintings.
I grew up in San Diego but I’m a wanderer so I’ve also lived in Boston, Paris, Salt Lake City, Denver, South Lake Tahoe, Lunenburg, Somerset, Colfax, the Big Island of Hawaii, and Nevada City, leaving pieces of my soul in each place.
I’m still traveling, collecting memories and soaking up all the living color I can find. I paint from life and from memory – not what others may see, but what I feel.
My Process
I use natural earth pigments and walnut oil to mix my own oil paints by hand, like the Old Masters did. It’s a time-consuming process but I enjoy knowing all the ingredients in my paint are biodegradable and not too far away from nature.
Some of my paintings are alla prima and completed in a single session. Others have two or three or more layers, each one dried and sometimes sanded before another is applied. The texture of these pieces is as unique as the finished composition.
Each painting is one-of-a-kind, imbued with my take on beauty and meant to be a transportive experience for the viewer.
Benediction
“Assert your right to be a chosen one.”
