Sunset at Ocean Beach

Acrylic on paper, 2008

This is a painting of a memory.  Several years ago I was at the beach and walked along the shore looking for shells with friends.  We found more jellyfish than shells.  The ocean looked so gray in spite of the clear sky.  I remember seeing a complete rainbow form at the horizon when the sun had almost completely set.  The rainbow of colors faded up and blended into a deep purple sky strewn with stars.  Once darkness had arrived we set up a bonfire and talked late into the night.
