The giant golden sun, rich with patterned details, was the result of a considerable amount of meditation and patience. It appears to almost graze the rugged terrain, ready to sink down below the horizon against a warm, colorful evening sky. The 'window' is inspired by the Window View of Big Bend National Park. I was fortunate to be able to visit this breathtaking park last year, and even catch a few stunning sunsets at the Window View. I was also inspired to create this piece after painting 'Moonkissed Window'.

Get to Know the Austin Artist:
I’m an acrylic and ink artist who sometimes dabbles in other mediums. I live in the Austin, Texas area with my husband, two kids, two dogs and one bearded dragon. I’ve always enjoyed artistic projects but I find that I desperately need a creative outlet in hard, stressful, or anxious times. Immersing myself in a painting balances my mind, body and soul. I enjoy the small details of my artwork the same as I do with life.  I hope that the vibrancy and patterns of my creations can inspire viewers to take the time to notice and find joy in the small, intricate, beautiful details in the world around them and in everyday life.
