In this smaller study, I tried a slightly more realistic view wanting to get a better representation of just how the sky and landscape looked that morning. As usual, I was sitting looking out and waiting for the sun to rise, hoping for an atmospheric effect that I could try to capture in paint. Here being so early, the sun is still below the horizon but illuminating the sky behind the encompassing cloud. A slightly lighter glow effused the center while the lower horizon blended into the sky above. Lights showed where there were various buildings in an otherwise dark landscape. This one has become a favored piece of mine and I enjoy looking at it remembering the beautiful sky that morning. Size is 5 x 7 inches (12 x 18 cm), oil on board.
