2021 was the first Sakura season of my life. I had one or two other paintings I did outdoors and was itching to do one in the morning, yet I had a young baby and kids that need me first thing. I got up early this particular morning to catch some of the dawn colors in the sky.

In this piece, you will notice a subtle shift in the blue of the sky from the sunrise and the tree tops outside my back door, a scene that has been a comfort and inspiration.

“Sakura Treetops at Dawn” captures the unique beauty of the Sakura trees at Yokota AB in Japan. Due to being diligently cared for and trimmed these 50-60 year old trees are much taller than is found around Japan.

I hope this piece inspires you to stand tall, ready for the new morning, grateful for the light and colors we enjoy each day.
