'Morning Glow' - 30 x 30 original

There’s a quiet moment in the morning when the light feels new again.
As if the day is gently beginning—
not rushing… just unfolding.
 
Morning Glow captures that feeling through a stand of birch trees washed in soft, luminous color. Warm tones of peach and gold rise through the sky, while cooler blues and greens settle into the landscape below, creating a sense of balance and calm.
 
The birch trees—strong, imperfect, and beautifully marked—stand as quiet reminders of resilience. Rooted, yet always reaching upward toward the light.
 
Painted in oil on a 30 x 30 canvas, this piece brings both warmth and softness into a space. The layered texture and palette knife work catch light throughout the day, subtly shifting as the room changes.
 
A painting about beginnings—
and the gentle strength it takes to meet them.
