The sun, whose rays
Are all ablaze
With ever-living glory,
Does not deny
His majesty
He scorns to tell a story!
He don’t exclaim,
“I blush for shame,
So kindly be indulgent.”
But, fierce and bold,
In fiery gold,
He glories all effulgent!...Gilbert and Sullivan

Joanne Bradley
This may be abstracted but I see the whole picture with the lake, the sunset, the reflection on the water…The illumination of the water is just brilliant Janis! Stunning use of color!
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you Joanne…I wanted to leave much of it to the viewer’s imagination, so deliberately made it amorphous and misty…

Absolutely Beautiful Janis ;)
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you so much for your kind comment.
Karin Taylor
oh that’s really incredible, the way it glows janis!
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you Karin…I love painting light and shade, but sunlight on water is my absolute favourite…to get the glow means fast, clean colour application, and no premixing….
Alison Pearce
Beautiful!!
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you Alison…

Anthony R. Pla...
Very pretty – and goes so well with the Gilbert and Sullivan poem… Very nice Janis!
Janis Zroback replied
Thanks Tony….for once the verse came first…though not a dyed in the wool G+S fan, I have always loved the song…the young woman who sang it at the end of Topsy Turvy, did the best rendition I have ever heard…

kjgordon
reminds me of …..you know…..sunsets, beach, kai, MAUI>>>>>>>>>>>>
Janis Zroback replied
LoL..I should have known…what else would it remind you of?
Jim Phillips
I was surprised when I saw it was part of the abstract collection, what I saw immediately the edge of some body of water where the setting sun has found it way through a break in the trees to create a blazing reflection on the water.
Janis Zroback replied
I added it to that collection, as everyone saw something different…I had left the details very vague on purpose…I guess you could call it an abstract landscape…

I saw this on the home page this morning and I knew that it was yours only from having looked at your work once well over a week ago when responding to one of your post’s on writing and publishing. And that demonstrates the uniqueness and significance of your individual style.
Janis Zroback replied
What a lovely comment Bradley…thank you so much…I really appreciate it…
Jan Piller
Congrats Janis! It’s very beautiful!
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you Jan…they must have had a theme in mind, as the chosen images don’t look related at first glance…...
blamo
Stunning and so well deserved all credit to you
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you so much T…I just realized how many of my paintings are inspired by music…visiting this one again reminded me that I have a link here to Shirley Henderson, who is such a fantastic actress and singer…
blamo
I believe that also
Janis Zroback replied
I have seen most of her work in movies and T.V., and make it a point not to miss any that come to Canada, but I did not know she could sing till Topsy Turvy…incredible voice….
