Hot Air Balloons over Lavender at Sunrise by Michele Volpe original retailer 16 X 20 acrylic painting on stretched canvas

In the stillness of the morning, the Hot Air Balloons slowly rise over the fragrant field of lavender. The sun is just starting to rise and the sky is a gentle assortment of colors. I was drawn to this picture by the juxtaposition of the purple lavender, the sky and the Hot Air retailer Balloons. I can just imagine gently floating over this beautiful field of lavender. Purple is one of my favorite colors and I love the smell of lavender so I just really let myself go and and get into the painting. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed painting it!
