From the Artist
My husband and I had been apart for months as we transitioned homes and jobs in our move to Seattle. The inspiration photo for this painting was taken at the end of a long day of driving toward our reunion, along the California coast. I remember it as a time of reflection, a closing of one chapter as we moved forward together. There was fear of the unknown, of change, and so much hope. “Peace at Sunset” is the moment of stillness before a big change. Of standing in the dark unknown, looking across bright, hopeful waters.
