The inspiration for Night Magic, Night Peace came from my own feeling that the night holds, but especially at Christmas time! When I watch the sun set each day and gloaming envelopes the edge of the sky, a sense of magic ensues, a feeling of peace as I prepare for the night and the warm comfort of accomplishment to be had after a hard day's work and what life has brought me that day.
This painting contains several symbols of magic and Christmas...the star of Christmas, a magical creature - the unicorn draped in a holly-laced pine wreath, the dove of peace, and the most magical of moons...a full moon on Christmas Eve, the glow so thick you can wear it like a blanket as it lights up the night! All gather in wonder and awe at the potential each holds to enchant, inspire, and change the world............
