Pastel on mounted paper. 9 x 12. This pastel landscape captures the gentle settling of evening as warm light drifts across open fields and still water. Soft golds and amber tones glow beneath a sky layered with violet, coral, and pale blue clouds, their edges dissolving into one another. The horizon remains low and quiet, allowing the sky’s shifting color to carry the emotional weight of the scene. Reflections break and reform across the water’s surface, echoing the sky above. Loose, atmospheric marks emphasize transition and mood, offering a moment of calm as daylight slowly releases its hold.
