1.2 Early Lights in Rain by Rachel Brask oil on canvas 30x40 inches
The early morning in the city is a quiet, still, and sacred time. The rain at the earliest spark of daybreak over the city glows with the refraction of the first light glistening on the raindrops as they fall over the quiet hush of a waking city. Walking around at this time carries with it a bittersweetness, saying goodbye to the night that we've known, while saying hello to the hope of a new day and whatever it holds. The rain falling during this time brings a white noise and a hush to the dawning sidewalks and buildings, as we take the first steps in shallow puddles to wherever our journey for the day starts.

The painting is inspired by the dark blues and high contrast light of walking around Boston around the early morning hours, right at sunrise, when it’s quiet and calm. Imagine all this viewed through the lense of a window when it’s pouring rain, and you get this imagery.
This original oil painting is painted on all outer edges of a 1.5 inch profile canvas, signed by artist Rachel Brask, and is available for purchase. Painting comes with hanging wire affixed to back of canvas. This original hand-painted canvas also contains a uniquely textured surface where some of the "rain drips" dried in place.
