A Painted Sky
(Edited)
This is what remains when the artist quietly hides behind the horizon.
The work was finished, but he had left without waiting for applause. The paints lingered, thick, rich, applied boldly and without hesitation. The clouds continued to live their own lives, no longer needing the one who had painted them. The river below played along, returning a double portion of this painting, slightly softer, slightly deeper. And the birds added movement, small, quick, almost imperceptible, and utterly silent.
I don't remember what I stared at the longest, the sky or the water. At some point, it stopped feeling like just a sunset. It was a state, carefully composed of color and silence. A painted sky made my evening.
Thank you for stopping by!

Lovely pictures, the colours and the composition 🙌 just wonderful ❤️
What a beautiful landscape—the interplay of colors and the reflection on the water complete the scene perfectly. I loved what you wrote; it’s full of literary devices. The truth is, those works never expect applause; they fade away silently, leaving no trace, and we’d never even realize they were there. Best regards.
Thank you so much. I'm truly touched by your words — both about the landscape and the text. 😌
