Sunset No.109

A cloudy sunset, appearing mostly blue overall. I captured a rare reflection , I thought it was a necessary addition and a welcomed change from my usual sky and tree tops compositions.

Sunset No.108

Big clouds seem to be abundant lately, they serve as an interesting contrast to the blasts of color that seems ever present above the tree line.

Sunset No.107

One of the more haunting sunsets I've seen so far. The mass of dark clouds just seemed to obliterate the light from the setting sun causing the landscapes trees to turn black.

Sunset No.106

Darkness came quickly, and my friend and I painted furiously taking in every ounce of beauty trying our best to distill Gods light. I made quick impressions as I tried to feel something important from what was before me.

Sunset No.105

Arriving later than I wanted for the third time this week has been tough to swallow. My faith promises me that all things bad and good will work together for good, so although I have fell short this week I mustn't focus on that but instead forge ahead with confidence.

Sunset No.104

The second time this week that I arrived later than I intended. I was still able to capture the last of the fleeting effects of warmth that gently blushed the bottom of the lavender clouds. I have another chance Friday to arrive early, another chance to do things right, thank God.

Sunset No.103

After a day that threatened to keep me from painting, I packed and went to the sunset. The storm from earlier died down and by the time I arrived (much later than I had planned) I witnessed the remains of one of the most beautiful sunsets yet. I quickly set up and tried my hardest to forget about my late arrival as I painted the vanishing beauty.
