"The late afternoon sky lights up with a vibrant 'sun blast' of color at the end of the day."

Artist comment: "This painting is nearly the rainbow except for the greens. I have seen some brilliant sunsets on the Pacific Northwest coast. Here I have reproduced, from my memory, the intensity of color as the last rays of the sun lights up a rising wave. I painted this oil as a companion piece to 'Last Blast (of color)'. I was very excited to be continuing the 'red' theme in a different size and shaped canvas. I began with a sketch of wave and rock, then painted the blues, reds, and dark browns. I then articulated the purple foam patterns and the runoff on the rocks. I saved the bright yellows for last and highlighted the splashes with pure white. Three 'm' birds were the final touch."
