I love painting the ships in fading light. Late afternoon light warms from yellow to pink. During sunset and fleeting crepuscule red-orange glow engenders feelings of longing. At night, the ships’ masses blur into the mountain background while strong white and green lights outline the edges of their silhouettes, reflecting far across the water. In the green-gold gloaming before dawn, strengthening light gradually reveals shape and form.
