If you've ever witnessed the entire duration of a sun setting, you've seen the effects created by that magnificent descending ball of light. Clouds quickly form, then change colors faster than the eye can keep up with. Of the many frames captured by my camera, I chose this one to paint.

The sun breaks into the sky at the St. Petersburg Marina in Florida. I arrived before sunrise and waited for the morning light to color the sky. When it did I was ready with my camera and took several photos as reference for this painting.
