Stephen Lyman - Lake of the Shining Rocks

"When this lake was named Tenaya Lake, after the last chief of the Ahwahneechee Indians,
that tribe already had its own name for it," wrote Stephen Lyman. "For generations, they
had been calling Pyweak (Pie-wee-ack), which means 'Lake of the Shining Rocks.' It's a
very beautiful place where a lot of people go in the summertime, but by October everybody's
back at school or back at work.

"I really enjoy painting light, trees, rocks, water and reflections. I love those elements and
I love walking over the rock in Yosemite. This is a scene that just invites you to step onto
that slope, even though it's not level. It's asking you to keep your balance and open your
senses as fully as you can. Walking over that rock puts you in touch with nature . . .
with all of life, really."
