Artist’s Statement
I painted and titled the violin "Twilight" for the simple reason that it's the time of day that I love the most - early evening into dusk.
This is when I can really begin to relax, listen to music, and reflect a little on the day.
Whenever I hear my favorite music, regardless of the style, this is the time of day that the music transports me to, whenever or wherever I may be listening to the music.
The city lights, the cool of the evening, the music. All I need is a nice glass of wine and I'm set.
