RIBBONS AND HOT FLASHES

LAYERS OF THE NIGHT
6"w x 4"h pastel
Private Collector

At first glance, all was dark...

subdued and moody tones coating the sky.

At second glance, thin ribbons of colors were revealed...

streaking, as hot flashes.

    Thank you Dana!
    But are you relating to the layers of the night or the hot flashes? Personally I can relate to both.

    The sunset is so intense and it so amazing you can paint this big painting on a small 4x6 canvas. Beautiful.

MEMORIES AND FAVORITES

DIGNITY pastel SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR After the holidays, I begun to reminisce of people from my past.    Reflecting, I realize that life experiences have  enriched me greatly in so many ways.  Dignity is not only of a friend I lost touch with,  but also a personal, favorite painting that went to another home. Fond memories.... gone but not forgotten.
