Whether a photograph, a painting, or art created by other means and media, Boulder astounds as inspiration and as a subject for any media, anytime. Sunset is a sure thing! While this particular rendering is inspired by Claude Monet, I chose to not try to make it more like a Monet. I am unable to visualize it being improved without deleting it and starting fresh.  Monet favored using pure colors right out of the tube. While I share that paint preference, any similarity in our work ends there! As if I even had to say that <G>

Regardless of the Monet style which I think was not particularly captured in this image, I do love the image. So,  I give you Saturday Sunrise Not By Claude Monet!
