This is a painting that whispers about that special time of summer day when darkness begins to flow outward from long cool shadows to pool in the spaces where the sun’s warmth fades away. It’s a painting about then and now, about science fiction laced with the poetry of Bradbury, imagined explorations of distant lands, secrets held tightly by old friends, and flowers that bloom late. It’s about being blissfully unaware of the open door which is slowly closing, about a time when worlds with never ending horizons still exist, and the possible seems probable.
