Spring Sunrise II, Painting by Everglades artist Jo-Ann Sanborn

Spring Sunset II, Jo-Ann Sanborn, 2011
acyclic on canvas, 12x12

Just like Spring Sunrise, today's sunset was done almost completely with a palette knife.  I'm really enjoying the way the color mixes on the canvas.  More paint brings more texture, too.  

The Everglades have become the focus of my work and I continue to enjoy the interest they provide.  Still, I value the time occasionally spent with other mediums and subjects. 

Approaching a different subject or trying a different medium refreshes the creativity process, opens the mind and enhances skills.  Have you tried something new lately?
