Cloudless Day



Okay, so they won't all be like this one...

People I know on the West Coast may tell you this is their favorite kind of day; cloudless. I beg to differ. A clear day is a wonder in today's world. However, few artists, with the exception of the exceptional Maxfield Parish, have sought to capture such a sky. The sublime nature of clouds is seen everywhere in art through the centuries...

Still. Such a blue sky can make you forget it's winter... can transport you to any period in your lifetime... the possibilities are endless.

  1. I seem to feel tranquelized by the beauty of nature. Whenever I see a clear blue sky, I can't help to think "Wow, how miraclous." I feel the same if I see popcorn clouds, and these I always find myself looking for random shapes. I love sunsets and sunrises, and these are the moments I feel most at peace.
