Mauna Kea Sunrise




This is the view at 6 a.m. in the morning from my backyard. The sun is just peeking over from the east side of the island, creating a "slice of sunshine" on one side of the mountain, while the other side is still half asleep. I love this time of day, but I must say I am not usually wide awake enough to dive into my paints at such an early hour. It took some planning! Painted on location in Puako.
