I am not a fan of early mornings. I love watching sunrises but I would much rather they happen at noon instead of 5-6am. Unfortunately for me, I have two dogs who insist on going outside every morning between 5 and 6. My husband has taken to calling this time 'O'Dog Thirty". So, much to my husbands amusement, I roll myself out of bed, stumble thru the living room to the back door to let the dogs outside.

This is my routine most mornings. I am usually so tired that I don't even notice the world outside while I am letting the dogs out. But the other day, I'm not sure why, I happened to actually pay attention to the world around me and I saw the most beautiful sky. The sun hadn't made its appearance yet so the sky was stained all sorts of pinks, purples, and blues. The dim light made everything else appear black against this beautiful backdrop. I stood outside for quite a while letting the beauty of the morning soak into my soul. I must have soaked in to much though because when I went to my studio to work I found the morning leaking out of me and onto my canvas.

So here it is, my neighbors pine tree silhouetted against the beautiful dawn. I give you O'Dog Thirty.
