Normally, I don't try for a "painting in a day", but yesterday was a rough day. A lot going on had me unplugging telephones and getting out to my studio. I grabbed a canvas and just started applying paint.Whatever came, came. And this is what I got. Funniest thing to happen was that it became a landscape! I am really not into landscape painting, but I think my mind went to the flowing water because it is such a peaceful thing. I sleep at night with a sound machine turned on to flowing water. I love the mountains, although I did not paint any in this work. Maybe because I feel like I am always climbing mountains lately in my life. I know there are things that I need to "touch-up", a few more hi-lights here and there, but this is what I did in a day. 12"x12", gallery wrap canvas. $95.00 plus shipping.
The First Day
The first recorded Words of God that we have are "Let there be light" (Genesis 1:3 NIV). The sun was already shining brightly, but God made the earth's thick new atmosphere allow diffuse light to penetrate to the surface. And so it was that the light was made separate from darkness. The first day of earth's creation was literally the first "day" as someone on earth's surface would experience it - a period of opaque light, and a period of darkness. (Genesis 1:3-5)
