Sunset, Friday, 11 June 2010

William Theodore Van Doren. Sunset from Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on watercolor block, 16 x 20.

Dark limbs above me in the edge of the woods reach higher as the sun falls, breathe in the heat here and breathe out something like a condensation, the almost invisible blue summer evening haze, humid and cool, a shadow, a form of light gathering on the ground.
