| "Breathless" #1098. Original refractured watercolor. 32"x32" on wraparound panel, 1" deep. $1,500. | |
| Yet another breathtaking moment before the sun comes up over the Salton Sea. The following poem is also painted into the painting | |
| "Breathless". | |
| We oft forget the power in the air | |
| until the moment that it is denied; | |
| then we recall the instant we first cried | |
| and know that our next gasp's without compare. | |
| We often curse the wind that whips us clean | |
| as blowing us and all our things away; | |
| we fear trees that will fall instead of sway | |
| and rarely stop to think this storm will mean | |
| there is a reason behind the sky that raged | |
| with passion, then left softness in its wake | |
| with pastel colors reflected in the lake, | |
| and recognize our lives are somehow changed. | |
| At sunset or at dawn, then we can say | |
| This was a day that took our breath away. | |
