I love sunset/sunrises, I am mesmerized by each one I see. So you can see why it is a challege for me to try and paint them. The inspiration for this painting came from a trip I took last week. We have had sooo much rain that there is a lot of standing water in the fields. It may be very frustrating for farmers but I was amazed by the darken atmosphere and bright spots of color as the puddles reflected the beautiful colors of the sunset.
Today's painting is titled "The New Calf". I really like how this painting turned out. It is a bit on the tonalist side due to the colors I used and gives strong visual impact using a simple minimalist composition. I put an angus cow and calf in the painting for focal point and scale.
