The sun bows down, its promise kept, While shadows bloom where daylight slept— Yet still the path in silence streams, Guiding me gently to my dreams "The Dreamer's Path" 8" x 10" oil on linen • • • • • • • • #figlinski #oilpainting oilpaintingvideo #paintingreel #artcollector #galleryart #instaartist #artwatchers #fineartcollectors #artoftheday #artfeature “floridaart #floridaartist #artoftoday #artcollector#tonalism #impressionism #luminism #sunsets #sunsetpainting #coastalliving #homedecor #sm

A strip of pale avocado light Hangs where ocean meets the night. The air hums with sweet suspense, Each gust a thrill, each sound intense. Waves leap high with silver spray, Then crash and twist and slide away. The sky holds still—then breaks apart, A rosy lightning cleaves its heart. It arcs in silence, soft and wide, A bloom of fire above the tide. The sea, awash in blushing flame, Whispers back the storm’s sweet name. • • • • • • • #figlinski #oilpainting oilpaintingvideo #paintingreel #artco

As the Florida sun sank into the wetlands, the sky came alive with warm, molten orange that softened across the still water. Two birds drifted through the fading light, their silhouettes gliding softly above the quiet marsh. In that brief, radiant moment, the day exhaled into evening, leaving the landscape wrapped in calm.
