My final gallery from my Creative Renewal journey west leg showcases the breathtaking skyscapes I encountered on the road home. There’s nothing quite like the tranquility of gazing at colossal, ethereal clouds drifting just above the rugged mountain peaks. Their luminous shadows cascade downward—both foreboding and protective—embracing the landscape beneath the angelic cumulus.
This unforgettable cross-country adventure has strengthened my connection to photography and visual storytelling, driving me to capture the raw, untamed beauty of the road. I’m profoundly grateful for this experience, made possible through the prestigious 2024-2026 Creative Renewal Arts Fellowship—an Indy Arts Council program supported by Lilly Endowment, Inc.
