"Nightfall"
2016
oil on panel
6x6"
That beautiful moment when the sun fades and the brightest stars and planets become visible.
I always wanted to be an artist but considered being a surgical nurse or an astronomer, hmm...quite the variety! I am drawn to the stars like some are to the ocean. I find peace, comfort and a closeness to our creator. Looking at the stars makes one's worries feel much smaller and less significant.
Anyway, this painting seemed to paint itself. I was really in the moment. I wish that could happen more often then again it wouldn't be so special if it did.
