Nocturne painting is a term used to describe a painting that depicts a scene evocative of night or a very dimly lit scene such as at twilight.
The tonalist painters of the late 19th and early 20 century have been a hugh influence on my painting style. Creating a painting to view in quiet contemplation and meditation is my hope.
This painting Ephermeral Light has been in the works for several months and now is in it's new home.
One of the challenges of painting "in the dark" is you have a limited view of your palette. Here's an example of how I light my easel with Mighty Brite book lights.

You have come such a long way, Karen. I am loving what you're doing!
Isn't it wonderful when a viewer can get lost in a painting.
Mary Thank you so much for your comment. It means so much to me and I am sorry that I did not see it sooner. Big hug
How wonderful to be enjoying what you are painting. I still have not found that yet. I am envious.
