From her early morning hikes she was inspired to produce a wonderful series of Morning Sun landscapes. We are excited to exhibit these new works ! Lynn Sondag Morning Sun Regular gallery hours: Thursday - Saturday 2-6pm Sunday - Wednesday appointments welcome Artist Reception Sunday October 25th, 2-4pm Walking connects me to a place and weaves that place into my daily routine. As a kid, I walked a paper route every day, year-round, in and around my neighborhood. I was up at dawn to bring people their news first thing in the morning. As an adult, sunrise is still my favorite time to walk, when the world is still and quiet and I can take in the light with my full presence. Many of the paintings in this exhibition record my favorite sunrise walk in the Presidio, the Ecology Trail. Several days a week, I drive to Marin County around 6 am and stop along the way at the Morning Sun Trail in the Headlands, where the sun and fog linger together. As I climb the switchbacks, I pass through eucalyptus trees transformed by sun-rays and mist. Painting lets me savor this experience and the gifts of the world that bring joy and fullness to my life. Watercolor is especially well suited to subjects that are fleeting, ephemeral, even formless: water, sunlight, wind, fog. I'm inspired, and challenged, to capture their form. Making these paintings deepens my own connection to place, and it connects me with others who walk similar paths. The paintings begin that conversation. -Lynn Sondag See All Lynn Sondag ~ Morning Sun ~ Exhibition Paintings location provided by event source: "1101 Lake St, San Francisco, CA 94118, USA" ―――――――――― SF Stuff To Do
