I absolutely love reflections in water. One evening I was in Madison, Indiana, right along the Ohio River. There was a fantastic sunset – the sky was yellow and it reflected in the water. There were some boats docked. Against the yellow they were almost a silhouette. There were very few other colors. I just loved the magic that these colors created. I hope that sharing this painting with you will create the same emotion I felt.

I think I have too many favorites of your paintings…but this is definitely one of them. I love when you have this painting hanging somewhere I can see it because it relaxes me and makes me feel calm.
There’s something very calming about the stillness and solitude of being near the water at dusk. You did a good job of replicating the feeling of inner peace, Tom.
