Sunrise
36 x 60 in., oil on canvas
Sunrise can be seen at the Grand Bohemian Gallery at 55 Wentworth Street, Charleston, South Carolina.
There are few things more stirring than to walk along the shoreline of the Atlantic as you witness the dawn of a new day. First a glow begins to light the eastern horizon. Suspense builds as the sky brightens and bathes the clouds in magnificent hues. The fragrance of the salt air, the rhythm of the surf accompanied by the calling of a seagull makes for a sacred moment. My hope is that Sunrise will evoke that amazing moment in the hearts of those who view it.
