Monday in the Studio

The process of painting sunsets proceeds as artists capture golden hues of light on canvas.

A solitary figure creates a tranquil silhouette in this starry night painting by Cindy McWaters.

Here Barbara proceeds to recreate variations of color as the setting sun casts shadows onto low hanging clouds.

The pink and purple color palette of a summer sunset is used in Julia's new landscape painting.

As I slowly struggle on with this portrait painting of my daughter.

The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place:  from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from the spider's web.
