Painting on Top of the World: Live from the Swiss Alps

Posted on December 09, 2024 by Heidi Schwartz

Have you ever felt so inspired by a place that you just had to capture its magic? That’s exactly how I felt painting in the heart of the Swiss Alps! This blog is all about that unforgettable adventure, and I’ve linked a video below so you can experience it with me.

 

It all started with me lugging my gear—a backpack, an easel, and a blank canvas—through a charming little village and up a winding mountain trail. The journey wasn’t easy (I definitely felt like a human pack mule!), but the view at the top made every step worth it. I set up at a spot overlooking Lake Lucerne, surrounded by the rugged beauty of the Alps, with clouds rolling in to add their own drama to the scene.

 

The painting I created that day captured not only the stunning landscape but also the historic site where Switzerland was founded. It was one of those moments where the world feels both vast and deeply connected.

 

To make this experience even more special, I turned that painting into a Globetrotting Pillow, now available in my shop! If you’ve ever wanted to bring a little piece of the Alps into your home, this pillow is a cozy and stylish way to do it. You can check it out here.

 

And if you’re curious about the painting process, don’t miss the timelapse video linked below. You’ll get to see the artwork come to life, plus a fun little bonus of me yodeling at the end (because how could I not?).

 

Whether you’re here for the art, the adventure, or just a good laugh, thanks for stopping by. And if you’re interested in having your own event or special location brought to life through live painting, visit my other site, PaintYourEvent.com. Let’s create something magical together!
