Description
Since I had recently painted a painting entitled, “MoonShine,” it seemed appropriate for me to do a similar one entitled “SunShine.” That was how this painting was conceived. This is intended to be a sunset at the beach. I live on the east coast of Florida in Brevard County. I was envisioning somewhere around Cocoa Beach. That beach is just five miles from my home.
Just as I mostly played with colors and made up the composition for “MoonShine,” I did the same for this painting. I was enjoying putting together some unusual colors instead of the usual turquoises and pale blues. I played with a variety of blues, purples, reds, oranges, and yellows. I just started out with a vague idea and let the painting “talk” to me. That is always a therapeutic exercise for me. I just get lost in the process of painting. It takes me on a journey and I don't always really know where it will take me. Freeing!
Part of the experimentation is layering colors upon colors. If it is something pleasing, then I leave it and may add similar ones. If it isn't pleasing, it is easy enough to change it or even paint it out. It is a kind of doodling with paint. This is a 16” by 20” acrylic painting on canvas.

Amazing work. So much depth of color, and a wonderful combination of restless motion and calm stillness. Love it.
