Sunset: A nightly masterpiece painted in the sky for all to see, yet missed by most.
Over the past couple years I have done everything in my power to not miss the sunset. I try and clear my schedule, get to place where I can see, and sit and watch the masterpiece unfold. The sunset is the most relaxing, and beautiful thing I have ever experienced. It has a way of making me forget about the chaos around me, and focus in on something far more beautiful; and the best part about it - no matter how many times I watch it, it can still take my breath away. (Now find me a guy that can do that!!! haha jk)
So what do I do when the clouds cover the sunset? I paint it!! :) I have tried painting the sunset sooo many times, and every time it feels like a fail. There is something about the beauty of the sunset that can't be caught in a picture or with a brush. This past weekend I again attempted to paint the sunset. It may not have come out exactly how I wanted, but it ended up being a beautiful sunset regardless!
I plan on watching the sunset many more times in my life... and I am sure, I will again attempt to paint it; because if the sunset doesn't already sooth the soul enough, painting it sure does. :)
