This peaceful sunset painting is an 18x36 oil on canvas, painted in Little River, Van Damn State Park, CA.

“The winds are far away;

The sea alone hath speech

The killdeers play

In little hollows of the kelp-strewn beach.

Beyond, a wisp of fog has come to rest

Upon the mountain’s breast

Here from a western steep

I watch the sea-gull soar;

Below the deep

Darts a white chord along the curving shore

And brims the day with thunder.  At my feet

The unshaken dews are sweet.

The hour is full of peace

Too tenderly profound

To fail or cease

At any call of lark, or ocean-sound

Where lonely waters meet a loner sky

The winds of morning die.
