Respite

As a representative landscape painter, my attention is often drawn to the transition of light, moving shadows, where the sun is hitting and missing, contracting or expanding. To me, the movement of the sun symbolizes the passage of time and the transient nature of beauty and life.

As a representative landscape painter, my attention is often drawn to the movement of light, where the light hits and misses. In my work, the sun is a motif that indicates the passage of time and the transient nature of beauty and life. In this piece, timelessness and time passing are represented by the transitional time of day, a scene part in shadow being overtaken by sunrise.
