Ascend into the majestic and formidable world of “EVEREST!,” a profound mixed media artwork by artist Riley Vandervest, crafted in 2023. This piece, measuring 22.25 inches by 9.125 inches with a depth of 0.5 inches, is presented on wood, adding a natural, tactile element to its presentation.

“EVEREST!” captures the raw, untamed essence of the world’s highest peak through an abstract lens. The composition is dominated by swirling, rugged textures in shades of grey, black, and hints of blue, evoking the icy, rocky terrain of Mount Everest.

The artwork’s vertical orientation mirrors the towering height of Everest, drawing the viewer’s eye upwards, much like the climb itself. The interplay of light and dark areas suggests the play of shadows and light on the mountain’s face, with the subtle blue tones hinting at glacial ice or the cold, crisp atmosphere at high altitudes. Riley Vandervest’s technique brings forth the sense of scale, challenge, and awe associated with this iconic peak.
