The sunset of my mind


For my wet medium I chose to draw a sunset of my mind.  This sunset is perhaps beautiful but I wonder if I would actually like to be there to see this sunset.  To me it seems hot and intrusive.  There is no boundary to the land which is lonely and expansive. I chose to cut my paper into a circle symbolizing the limitless boundaries of not only the land but the sun as well.

 I really enjoyed using oil pastels for this piece.  I liked pushing the blending of the medium and found the long horizontal strokes relaxing to execute.
