Seeing the gorgeous colors that the setting sun paints on everything makes me want to rush out there and paint – to try and capture the soft gradients on the sky, the warm touches of light on the otherwise painfully bright white buildings. Photos just don’t seem to work…

But honestly, I should really stop myself from painting at sunset, cause it’s the most frustrating thing I’ve been doing lately :DD I’m chasing cast shadow that slip away and meld into each other within twenty minutes. Colors change so fast that by the time the first layer of paint is down on the paper, the colors I’d put down as second layer don’t make sense anymore. Everything is changing and I’m on a constant race to try and match what I’m seeing but by the time it’s down on paper it is too late.

I’m doomed to failure.

I think for now I should stick to _enjoying_ sunset scenery, trying to capture it in my mind, study and absorb what I’m seeing. I need to level up many skills till I have a chance. :)))

 

(I wanted to upload a couple of photos for you, but the wifi is so slow at the moment, that it was a struggle to open the dashboard, so I guess you’ll have to do without the photos for now.)
