Description
Painted from 23rd September - 30th September, 2013Size: 20 inches x 16 inches
Acrylics on linen
I had painted direct sunlight a few times before but I wanted something more impressive and eye-catching. I like the composition of the sun and it's rays balanced on the other side by the dark hawthorn and its branches. And the clouds and long grasses picking up on the light in between.

This is simply fantastic! Love how the sun almost looks to shape the land to its rays <3 Textures are intriguing especially for the wheat like twigs. Exceptional job!
