“Spirit of the Sun”

Sunday, March 21st, 2010

For some time I wanted to do another “Sun”; with the friendly open & smiling face in bright summer colors.  Having done a few of various sizes in the past, I knew these are usually good sellers.  But I wanted to do ‘more’ with the design & thus was born the idea of ‘how’ this giant orb affects the whole of our lives & environment.  How could I represent ‘wind’, for example…

After a few studio  mishaps, this is what finally evolved…

(this is also now available as a print; contact me if interested).

Upon seeing it, several friends, (and the hubs), suggested sending it to the “CBS Sunday Morning” show.  After pursuing this course; I submitted a shot of it to the Art Challenge as required & was shortly notified thereafter that it was juried into the CBS Sun Art Library & will be featured on the program later in the year.

UPDATE:  This was aired Easter Sunday, April 4th and I will receive a tape of the segment shortly!
