Sunset over Memphis
As I sit staring out at the beautiful oak trees along the Mississippi River, I imagine a serene setting in a time before this amazing escapade. As I listen to the engines of the stunning Mississippi riverboat, I imagine Miss Memphis cruising down the river in all her splendor with the sunset and the Memphis Bridge at her back. As I gaze awestruck at the gorgeous scenery surrounding me, I notice an elegant plantation further inland. While we gently pass this amazing site, I see a young Huck Finn floating by on his raft, off to many adventures of his own. Listening to the water fall from the ever turning turbine, time slowly passes while my imagination takes me to simpler times. I then knew that I had to capture this amazing palette on canvas to share with the world. This piece invites its audience to partake in a relaxing adventure along the Mississippi River, in a time where our troubles cannot come to be a nuisance.
