Dawn Palms, Study

Watercolor & Ink, 6x4

When the sun first breaks on the marsh, the palm trees and the small islands are painted with special colors.  The shadows hold the deep blue of the night, but the grasses glow with the fire of the coming day.  
This painting is a value and color study for future work.

 It will be available on eBay through 1/29/16 - click here for eBay
