In regards to my painting “Chicago Sunrise”...
I approached my subject as an experimental piece that I’ve had on my mind for a long
time. I wanted to incorporate gold leaf along with oil paint to help me to express the
beauty and power of our sunrise over Chicago’s lakefront setting.
Chicago is depicted in silhouette against a purple (violet) sky.
The sun magically turns into gold to show its viewers how beautifully we
complement each other.
