“Bridge to Tomorrow” ©2011 Niki Gulley
12″ x 24″ textured oil painting
On a peaceful autumn day last fall, I went out to White Rock Lake and captured this beautiful sunset behind the Dallas skyline. I liked the intricacy of the bridge and how it crossed through the composition, connecting the left and the right sides. The sunlight was peaking through the ironwork and various plants in the foreground were back lit, while the water’s surface was shimmering from the low light, spreading vivid colors in all directions. A perfect ending to the day!
