Deidre Townsend: There Goes the Sun

Oil on Canvas Board

Sara talked about how spectacular a sunrise is.  I'm more of a night person, so I don't see as many sunrises as I do sunsets.  I do agree with her about looking at the right moment so you don't miss something incredible.  I have dozens of pictures of sunsets from my childhood home in Louisiana.  The bayou makes a beautiful setting for a spectacular sunset almost every night.  Capturing it on canvas enables me to keep it even though I don't get to see it often anymore.

Jeanne King: Good Day, Sunshine

Acrylic Pens on Rock

There is no happier image than a smiling sun, and I’m looking for happiness these days!

Here are my twin oceanside paintings. Being by the water, and type of water, gives me peace and joy.  I guess that means I am a water sign.  

Lynn Hanousek: April Sunrise

5x60 inch scarf from leftover yarn

Facebook: Lynn Hanousek Designs

Who would knit a scarf to use in April one might ask? Spring is here, the weather is warmer. I started knitting this project to see if I could use up some leftover yarn. It's simply knit one, purl one and it seemed to work, so I kept on going bringing all of the colors randomly together like a beautiful sunrise. It's finished now and it is so cold and windy out today, a day so close to the end of April, that I’ll wear it when I go out later.

 

Helen Eaton: Sunrise Ablaze

Mixed Media Collage

I discovered that Sara's gorgeous fire-y sunrise was only one of many when I clicked over to her blog.  She had taken a photo from her kitchen window on 25 different mornings.  Each was exactly the same... and completely different.  I noticed that one of them showed a small cottage in the trees.  I'd add that cottage to my collage. 
(If you're wondering, yes... I did stress a lot over it looking like my cottage was on fire instead of the sun rising behind it.  In the end, I embraced the issue by giving the piece a fire-y title.)

Every morning I stand at my kitchen window and look at a masterpiece. Each day is unique and sometimes if you don't look at just the right moment, you'll miss something spectacular. The simple beauty of a sunrise is a gift, and a wonderful way to start a day.
