A relaxing sky of cobalt blue shimmers across a bay. Acrylic on canvas. 11hx14w

In this richly textured original by Ciel, a quiet sun slips over the edge of a bay, reflecting the sky across the water below and creating a color-drenched logarithmic spiral across the canvas.

A rewarding realm. Original by Ciel. Acrylic on canvas. 16hx20w

Meadows roll into the distance as brilliant sunshine meets starry night behind a tree's pink foliage in this softly painted peaceful scene.

"After Thought"

Where does time go when it's passed?
It goes here where things outlast.

Air of night and sky of day
Stillness keeps the storms away.

If this is your heaven too
don't fast forward, find a view.

Touch the silence, slip asleep
this is where your secrets keep.
