"Dawn Promise"
Pastel on archival board; 12x9
SOLD
A few days ago I had to drive to the beach early in the morning. The sun was just coming up, the colors in the sky reflected in the water, the ground fog held to the edges of the salt marsh, and the balance and peace of the scene was spectacular. I had no time for sketching, but I stopped on the shoulder of the expressway to take a few reference photos. I wanted to capture the air of stillness, expectancy, and the brilliant colors that promised great things for the day.
