SKY'S THE LIMIT


BLUE SWEEP

4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel
8" square archival white matte, glass + gold leaf frame
SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR

San Diego has been experiencing June Gloom and boy, is it gloomy out there! So what a better pick-me-up than to create a sunny, blue sky?

I've wrote before about my affinity for skies. Love them! They transport me mentally to another place and time. I have also wanted to travel, yet unfortunately it doesn't work out with my tiny pocketbook. But the skies - now they let me escape.

Fly with me...

    Love the airy sweep of this and the way you have anchored it with the stronger darks.

    Another stunning sky. Who needs to travel when you have this to look at?

    Thank you one and all. Miss the blue of the sky during June gloom, but hey, really shouldn't whine over San Diego's weather, huh?
