Description
The summer solstice is the longest day of the year. It always brings excitement and the anticipation of warmth and sunlight, but along with it is the underlying knowledge that the days will begin to shorten and eventually, the warmth will fade to cold. Time will pass. This digital collage was created with all of these ideas in mind. Anticipation and regret all packaged into one day that occurs once a year. Warm red, orange, and yellows work well to create the mood and if it gets too warm, sit under the oak tree and cool off.
I've been selling originals and reproductions of my work online since 2007. People all over the world have purchased my art and it is wonderful to connect with so many.

Summer solstice is a great subject with emotional appeal. Your description of this image is as gripping as the image itself. The colors, with the dazzling pinks and yellows peeking out from beyond the black silhouette of the tree have expressed this experience for others to re-live. The sweet play of light, the warmth of the colors, the grand tree. Beautiful. -Sally Porter Meta Expressionist
