Sunrise Sunset
Three recent paintings were added into a newly created gallery "Sunrise Sunset".
This time, when painting these three landscapes I wanted to stick to a vertical format instead of the "landscape" one.
I think, when the scenery cut into an elongated painting vertically, it allows viewer to add his or her imagination on what could be on the left or right.
The top painting of the Sunset Through The Trees was an inspiration from my friend's photograph. Her family traveled Midwest and she took a picture of a gorgeous view of a vanishing day through the trees' shadows. The silhouettes of the trees like a frame of this artwork, and each section in between like a separate painting that tells the story.
Next painting that I called Bright Sunset has a good mix of yellow and purple that reveal a juicy red... This semi-realistic, semi-abstract painting has a good diagonal composition that competes with the horizon lines and the lines of the wavy waters:
The third painting has somewhat mellow wash of the colors. It is the beginning of the day, a Nature's awakening. It is a gentle Sunrise At The Lake.
A little rustic boat is parked next to the shore. Perhaps a couple of friends or lovers were enjoying a night on isolated island of this still, peaceful lake. Who knows .. I paint a hint; and, the story can be continued by a viewer's imagination:
