Brooklyn Sunrise...

I got up extremely early this morning and decided to go up on the roof (still in my PJs) to document the neighborhood skyline at sunrise.

Right: Here is the top of an old building that I absolutely adore. Everytime I walk by it, I think of what a nice building it must be to live in.


Left: A view of Manhattan with the early morning light reflecting off some of the buildings.




Right: In immediate foreground is a new luxury condo building that they just built, in the midground is the Williamsburg Bridge and in the far background is the lower portion of Manhattan.

  2. Too cool- to see morning in New York~ Thank you!
    You have inspired me~I might have to show "morning" from my "corner of the world" tomorrow-
    and thanks for the nice comments on my IF "green".
    I also as a kid would get scraps and needles- often think that time got me here more then my years at art school.

  4. hi there. thanks for the comment. I am not a frequent blogger but I do hope to address your questions about the correlation between faith & art in future posts.

    but to address your question more directly for now, I do find it important for folks to know about my faith when they view my art. I do not find my identity in my artistic gifts, but rather, I find my indentity in my salvation in Jesus Christ ... He has brought purpose, meaning and hope to my life. because of this, I hope to use my creative gifts to shed light on who God is and who I am in Him. so, yes, I think that faith and art are related; even if pictures aren't overtly "Christian" in nature.

  9. Being a nightowl, the sunrise is usually one of the last things that I see before I go to bed. Sunrises are a nice image to sleep to, they fill your dreams with color and a vibrant intensity.
