Creative Tuesdays - Everyday Happiness

The theme for this week's Creative Tuesdays is 'Everyday Happiness'. Please visit the other talented participants in this fun art co-op!

This piece (acrylic on acrylic paper (6 3/4" x 3")) is inspired by one of Jim Steele's daily sunrise photos (pictured below my painting). I have his permission to paint any of his photos.
Jim  photographs the daily sunrises on Canada's East Coast where he lives.   Talk about everyday happiness!  I'm on his email subscriber list.

I love your painting Christine.

I never knew that sunrise can look like that. Magical. And I love sunrise. Sunrise makes me happy, sunset makes me sad.

I made it to Creative Tuesdays too this week Christine.

An equally beautiful interpretation of a beautiful painting.

WOW. I LOVE your interpretation and especially the colours with trees in the foreground, pushing the yellow back. Wonderful addition, Christine. TY!! I think this may well be one of your best pieces yet. It's got such a designer feel to it too, very appealing to me of course.

These are gorgeous. I love landscapes, and these just capture so much, time of day, field of vision all mixed in with a very cool ambience. Great post. Thanks
