Sunset on the Bay was painted after a quiet evening along the shoreline in Door County. The kind of sunset you don’t plan for, it just catches you. The clouds break, the color show s up stronger than expected, and for ten minutes the whole place changes. Dawn Richardson didn’t take a photo. Instead, she went home and painted what she remembered: not the details, but the feeling. The saturated gold, the way the sky layered over itself in bands, and how the land below started to fade into blue. If you’ve spent any time in Door County, especially in the quiet shoulder seasons, you’ve probably seen a sky like this. You just might not have stopped long enough to remember it. Show more
