Dusk Study
6 x 12

Last week was my birthday. We took a day trip to Ft Worth to see the Caravaggio show at the Kimbell Museum and delivered a painting to my gallery in Ft. Worth, Galerie Kornye West, which is just down the street from the museum in Ft. Worth's Cultural District.

As we headed home, we saw a beautiful dusk fall over the landscape. With the intensity of the sun below the horizon, the sky took on a beautiful glow and the reflected light into the clouds was magnificent. I painted this little study from memory.

Your memory studies are always a joy to view.

Grudge Match is exquisite - I especially appreciate seeing the detail images.

Can you report on the quality of the Caravaggio paintings? How do they look at their advanced age?
