I love how these curvy trees frame this woman as she gazes out at the early morning clouds lit warmly by a rising sun. The lovely golds, blues and lavenders of the sky make for a dramatic backdrop for the star of this show. It was fun for me to see this painting come together. I just returned from a fun family trip to Hawaii and I'm feeling refreshed. This is the first of several paintings based on my travels there. I hope you enjoy!
