There is a perfect time of day, when the shadows are long and the landscape is draped in a warm golden light. It’s a lazy time of day, when the colours are brighter and richer for just a few minutes, before the sun begins to go down. This is my favourite time of the day, and it’s even better when I can watch it all from a spectacular viewpoint.
This time of day is what I had in mind when painting Trailside Treasures. Have a look!
