"Jo's Sunset," so aptly titled, is a celebration of the favorite painting of my dear friend Jo.

It is meant to capture the essence of a summer evening, with the view of a tranquil lakeside retreat during that golden hour when the sun descends to meet the horizon and paints the world in vibrant hues.

With each brushstroke, this painting seeks to evoke the warmth of the many summers shared with dear friends. It is an invitation to remember those moments, to feel the gentle breeze, and hear the echoes of laughter and tranquility that accompany such a serene summer evening by the lake.
