First Light

First Light
12 × 12 in.
Palette knife and oil on wood panel

First Light captures the quiet moment when morning begins to reach across the landscape, catching the upper faces of distant cliffs while the shoreline below remains cool and still. Layers of lavender, turquoise, rose, peach, and warm gold move through the sky and water, while bold mountain forms and rocky edges create contrast against the softer atmosphere.

Created primarily with a palette knife, the painting is built through layers of oil paint, leaving visible texture, movement, and broken passages of color throughout the surface.

This is an original, one-of-a-kind painting on a 12 × 12 inch wood panel.
