Evening Glow

"Evening Glow" (watercolor 4X6) was also painted in order to try to get the feel of art back into the bones. Sitting at a blank canvas or sheet of paper is often daunting, especially when I have really cut the creative side of my life short for so long. Whenever I seem to be in that bind, I often get loosened up by a sunset or sunrise scene. I love them so much and I have gotten to see so many beautiful sunsets in my life here in southern Arizona. We have some of the best evening skies around. If you have followed me for a while or even scan my old posts, there are several sky scenes. I do love them, so this is one to add to the rest. I am partial to this one right now because it marks the end of a hard year and the beginnings and hopes of a more creative and art filled life.

Ocean Sunset, August 12, 2015

I just love the ocean and it has been one of the things that I calms me the most and even when I am just painting it, the picture soothes my soul. This was a 18X24 acrylic that is up in a gallery in Phoenix or will be soon through PSA Art Awakenings.

Two Sunsets

My friend Andy Stang really likes sunsets and reminded me of late of God's hand in them. One of these, I did a couple weeks ago for Andy. The other I did today just having fun.
