"Painting mountains has always presented a challenge. And to paint the man who conquered Mt. Everest was like scaling the heights of the Himalayas. I wanted to capture the strength of Sir Edmund Hillary and relate him to the mountains. I share Sir Edmund's love for mountain climbing but nothing in my experience will ever compare to viewing the world at 29,000 ft. I was determined to convey the passion Sir Edmund had exhibited on that historic day in 1953 as he stood on the world's tallest peak."
