August
Moon
Acrylic on Canvas
48 by 24 inches
I cultivated the moon
flowers in my painting all summer long, photographing and sketching them
from every angle as they bloomed in the dark. In August, the moonlight
illuminated a silhouette of the palm tree, surrounded by the graceful
white ephemeral blossoms on my patio. God made this perfect night, and
inspired me to paint a magical garden nymph in blue, celebrating the
loveliness of the August night. |
