SkyScape II Painting

SkyScape II – The inspiration for this painting, and all the SkyScape series comes from looking at the same landscape and scenery every day, but noticing and capturing the scene during a moment of particular beauty. This early morning sunrise delighted me with luminescent pinks overtaking the gradients of violet and blue, the last vestiges of the night. The stark silhouette of the treeline in the foreground is accented and balanced by the small, but bright crescent moon. SkyScape II was completed in November 2016. Painted with professional grade acrylic paints and gel medium. Sealed with UV resistant clear, gloss sealant. The canvas is 1.5 inches thick, unframed and painted black around the edges. Textured points at the edges range from .25 to .5 inches off the canvas. This artwork is signed in the lower right corner with the artist's signature, a lower case "e". Wire for hanging is attached.
