Edge of Dusk captures the fleeting luminosity of that magical moment when day dissolves into night. Painted in layered veils of atmospheric color, the piece explores light, reflection, and the quiet eloquence of open space.

The violet shoreline anchors the glowing yellows and soft lavenders above, forming a contemplative meditation on transience. A solitary sailboat hints at stillness and distance, while the zigzag tidal pool—catching threads of gold—became the heart of the painting, resolved over days of patient refinement.

Part of my Shimmer Series, this work is an expression of restraint: saying more with less, trusting atmosphere over detail, and allowing color itself to shape the mood.
