Birch in setting sun - SOLD


"I remember a hundred lovely lakes, and recall the fragrant breath of pine and fir and cedar and poplar trees. The trail has strung upon it, as upon a thread of silk, opalescent dawns and saffron sunsets."
~Hamlin Garland

August setting sun

It was the cooling hour, just when the rounded

Red sun sinks down behind the azure hill,

Which then seems as if the whole earth is bounded,

Circling all nature, hush'd, and dim, and still,

With the far mountain-crescent half surrounded

On one side, and the deep sea calm and chill

Upon the other, and the rosy sky

With one star sparkling through it like an eye. ~Lord Byron

Sunset over Elm Tree Road

Tonight I got away from the house to paint. I drove to one of my favourite spots and a beautiful sky full of colour was there to greet me. I'm glad I got the sky in right away, because it changed in minutes. 6" x 6" / acrylic on canvas / $45 / SOLD

Summer sunset

MINI Aren't sunsets beautiful?

It’s the idea that people living close to nature tend to be noble. It’s seeing all those sunsets that does it. You can’t watch a sunset and then go off and set fire to your neighbor’s tepee. Living close to nature is wonderful for your mental health.” ~ Daniel Quinn

Sunset on the last day of June

MINI I was doing a lot of brushwork today - mainly repainting one of my children's bedrooms : ) When I finally got everything put away and supper cleaned up, I went outside to the porch and painted this colourful sunset. Fitting, as we usher in July. 2.5" x 3.5" / acrylic on canvas / $14 / SOLD
