I have been painting a lot of sunsets lately, there is
something about the magical hour just before the sun disappears over the
horizon that has fascinated people for eons. For good reason, when you get the
bounce of light, the last gleam, under the floating clouds it can be incredible
and mystical. I wanted to capture that random sense of order, the character of
the light and convey that feeling into the painting.
