59 - Dawn in Scotland

Dawn in Scotland 6 x 6 Oil on Gessobord - Buy it here.

I love abandoned things. Dilapidated, old structures left untouched by the hand of man. Something, while weak and decrepit, is so unapologetically unruly. Like a refusal to bend under the ever changing will of man, it stands as a time frozen. Tragedies like Pompeii and Chernobyl, how often it takes a disaster of this size to remind us natures power over our own and a serve as a testament to how life will continue despite our absence.

When I started painting this, I got really obsessive with the blending of the sun's rays and looking back at it, it looks almost psychedelic. To be honest the ruin on the hill does look funny to me and but it is what it is but I had fun making the lighting!
