Basin Sky
Basin Sky
4” x 6” / oil on linen panel / framed
When my family was on a road trip last summer, driving from California to Utah, we passed through the basin and range landscape of Nevada. We were trekking across Route 50, coined as the “Loneliest Highway” in the West. It was indeed lonely and offered up some of the most spectacular skies. This particular sky was simple, quiet, allowing the day to be swallowed gently by the coming dusk. A subtle sky is sometimes better than a dramatic one. Gives the viewer some time to stop and ponder.
I am happy to be offering these paintings as part of a fundraiser, to raise money to donate to a student in need. I hope to be A Light in the Darkness for someone who is trying to make their lives and the world a better place by gaining an education. I believe that offering opportunities for education can have a great impact and bring light into the world. So, I am donating 20% of all sales from this collection to a student in need. In 2024 I was able to pay the full tuition for a young woman, a Haitian refugee, so she could earn her CNA. Let’s see if we can do even better this year!
