Notes From the Curator
The darkening clouds in the summer evening roll across the sky and the sun fights to shine through. This battle is awe inspiring and I seek to grasp at the dying of the light. The shadow deepens and the colors grow dark and rich in stark contrast to the last warm rays of sun breaking through the clouds. I paint it with the energy of the storm fresh in my heart.
