MISTY SKY, DARK CLOUDS

TUMBLE INTO THE NIGHT
4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel
8" square archival white matte, glass + gold leaf frame
As I walked, the mist of rain fell onto my face.

A fresh, clean scent lingered in the air.

By nightfall a heavy mass of clouds filled the sky. 

With an altered dark mood.

    Everyone thank you so much for your comments!

    Do feel this sunset is so appropriate for today's weather - gloomy and rainy. The clouds will be thick this evening.
