"A Moment in Time"
"I wanted people to feel like they could walk on forever..." ~ Ellen Rice
A Moment in Time
by Ellen Rice
There are times when I'd like to stop the clock and make everything stand still so I can soak up and hold onto the beauty of the moment I'm in.
I often feel this way when I watch the ocean. Its ceaseless ebbing and flowing are a rhythm that is reassuring, even in the midst of a storm. No matter how furious the storm, everything eventually returns to normal. My pastel painting, "A Moment in Time," was inspired by a friend's photo and memories of days many years ago when my late husband, son and I enjoyed spending long days at Delaware Seashore State Park in Fenwick Island. They were peaceful days, ending with peach-tinged twilit skies taken in a lifetime living by the sea. Let the world rush by. For this moment, you're invited to join me as I stand at water's edge as night closes in from the west and appreciate a tiny speck of time in the amazing journey that is life, and then follow the horizon as far as I can go. ~ Ellen -------------------------------------------- You can enjoy this work of art in your home or office by clicking the View button above and purchasing the original or one of the archival gicle'e print options in the dropdown menu via secure checkout. |
