Orange Sunset (Englewood, Florida)

This is an original oil painting on a 12x24" gallery wrapped canvas, titled "Orange Sunset" by local artist Valerie Ann Peterson. 
The artwork captures a dramatic and vibrant sunset over the Gulf coast of Englewood, Florida. The sky is a stunning spectacle, dominated by large expressive clouds rendered in dynamic strokes of vivid blue, soft grey and brilliant white. The focal point is the setting sun, a fiery orb of bright orange and yellow, casting a dazzling reflection - a path of light - across the tranquil deep blue grey ocean. 
In the foreground, the painting grounds the scene with rich, dark silhouetted grasses and foliage along the edge of the dunes. This dark contrast enhances the intense luminosity and warm glow radiating from the horizon. "Orange Sunset" is a beautiful representation of a quintessential Florida evening on the beach. Offering a sense of peace and breathtaking natural beauty, this piece is ready to brighten any room or decor.
