Sunset No.148

Cold and grey, with no sign of the setting sun. On days like this I've grown to like adding small bits of color in unusual places. This time the distant street lamps left behind an orange glow that seemed a sufficient and welcome addition to this cold evening.

A brilliant orange glow permeated the air from the lower left, combining with the blue sky above creating an intense visual experience.

Sunset No.146

Dark, gloomy, and grey, another sunset with no sun. The lack of color and light was made up by the dim orange glow of a couple street lights in the distance.

Sunset No.145

An awesomely beautiful sunset. Full of blue grey clouds that parted way for a yellow grey backdrop. Under the lighting conditions the ground was dark and rich, while the water caught the light brilliantly.

Sunset No.144

Working on top of a highly textured canvas can be interesting. I used more paint than usual to capture this one, but it was necessary in order to cover the painting underneath.

Sunset No.143

A late sunset, but the light seemed to wait for me. I painted quickly capturing the last minute warmth. My setup was lit by a small battery powered light, I'd be lost without it.

Sunset No.142

A strip of clouds hung just behind the tree line and caught the last trickle of light.
