"Morning Has Broken"



I have worked with another piece of Styrofoam. This time I decided to use reflective material, but no embedded lights in the work. I don't know if this comes across, but the "sun" is a ball similar to a snow-globe with glitter inside. I hope it is effective for a feeling of a sunrise.

I chose to use a view from the Marin Headlands with the background of San Francisco and the Golden Gate bridge. I am hoping you get the awesome feeling when the sun just peeks through the clouds (or fog) as may be the case. I'm showing you tow images. One is where I made a few adjustments to tighten up the painting. I think it looks better. What do you think?

This painting will be going into a show at the Sunnyvale Art Gallery in October about favorite hymns. One of my favorite is "Morning Has Broken." what is your favorite inspirational song?
