"Quintessential Sunset" by Karla Nolan, framed glass painting

ALERT: You are about to view art of a different nature. These are paintings on glass -- that is, painted directly onto glass with specially formulated glass paints. They are always framed for the protection of the glass. The paints often are transparent and sometimes opaque, giving a stained glass appearance under good light. They, like all fine art, should not be hung in direct sunlight. The photographs do not do them justice -- my colors are very vibrant. Close ups are available, just e-mail me for information (see below). In most instances, click on the actual image for an even larger image to view -- you'll see lots of different items such as marbelization, transparent or opaque parts of the work -- try it and see! Commissions are accepted.

To me, this is truly a quintessential sunset (hence the name!). Sunsets come and go daily, if we're not laden with sometimes heavy cloud cover -- but they always have the night just hanging over them. Luckily, they sit in my mind always so I can pull back to the time I last saw one....and I spice it up with a bit of imagination! That's the fun part!

"Quintessential Sunset", 8"x10" measured edge to edge glass, sold framed as shown, will be in the "Landscaped" exhibit at Graffia Gallery, Spring Lake, Michigan; contact Linda Dimitroff after May 7th if you are interested in purchasing this painting; retail is $340, s&h to be added at time of sale.
