Dawn is a figurative painting speaking to the passing of time, a new day and a new beginning. The transient effects of color, light and mood reflect the serenity in waking, from night into morning calm.

This work was recently showcased at the Salmagundi Club's Humans 25 figurative exhibition. The piece also garnered an Award of Excellence in the International Association of Pastel Societies 14th Master Circle Division Annual Exhibition.” – Brian Bailey
