Last Light

30" x 30"    oil   $800.00
In the last light of day, the American eagle, a symbol of freedom, ceremoniously surveys his kingdom, a desert sanctuary.  Generous golden light passionately kisses every edge, transforming the harsh landscape before putting it to bed.  Gooddnight eagle.  Goodnight desert.  Thank you God, for the symphony of color.

“Dusk is just an illusion because the sun is either above the horizon or below it. And that means that day and night are linked in a way that few things are there cannot be one without the other yet they cannot exist at the same time. How would it feel I remember wondering to be always together yet forever apart?”

"A Pause In The Day's Occupation"

8" x 10"  oil on canvas   $50.00

Looking from my upstairs bedroom window is this pleasant pastoral scene. I took the liberty of deleting a few houses.  The evening glow was on the backsides of all the foliage and evergreens making the landscape soft and serene.  Lucky me.
