Moonlight Pines16x20
acrylic on canvas
A few days ago the full moon was was unnaturally bright in the morning sky over the Everglades. It was early, long before the sun had begun to brighten eastern horizon, yet the moon glowed big and round and cream, still high in the sky. Three planets added their light to the scene. What a beautiful sight!
The moon doesn't have an interior light. How does it get that radiant, glowing-from-within look? It’s a wonder and a gift of nature. Don't give me the facts, a sight like this is enough to please me all day long! Well, that, and maybe hearing a grandchild’s voice.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Carol. I appreciate your comments always. I often get several, but often in email-to-me format! It's so nice to hear from someone HERE!
ReplyDeleteJo-Ann, I think I can hear crickets and frogs. The mauve-ness of the moonlight on the palms is just beautiful. You really captured that night time glow on the palm tops.
ReplyDeleteFull of mystery and allure.
Just what every painter wants to achieve, some mystery and allure! The critters were definately chirping and croaking. Such a wonderfully peaceful noise. Thanks, Bonnie!
