Sunset Study II captures the quiet glow of day’s end—a contemplative study in warmth, atmosphere, and tonal harmony. With softened edges and gentle gradations, this painting invites a pause, evoking that moment when light lingers just a breath longer than expected.
Rooted in the tonalist tradition, the palette leans into earthy siennas, subdued lavenders, and soft golds, building an abstracted horizon where light and memory blur. Measuring 8x10 inches on a 1.5" deep canvas, this piece is part of an intimate series exploring light as emotion.
Perfect for tucking into a reading nook, layered into a gallery wall, or standing solo above a writing desk. Its scale makes it ideal for gifting or for collectors who savor art in quiet corners.
