Morning Light 2

There is nothing better than observing the transformations brought with the rising sun. Sitting on the grass of an abandoned baseball field watching the living, breathing world emerge from darkness, i feel like an eyewitness to creation itself. These morning hours of stillness are the best hours of my day and help me to propel forward. I feel like i get to be reborn each time the rays of sun color the sky.

These morning hours only get better if i have the extra time to do some painting studies.

Morning light

So the easiest way to deal with vital problem is to avoid it all together, and that is something that i have been doing very well for the past decade however i think it is time to change that.

Color is always been my week spot and attempts at it always left me dissatisfied. So i decided to tackle it and turn my failures, if not into success, then at least into a learning process,
