Sunrise Paintings: Metal Art Skyscapes

I recently got a commission from a friend to create a metal art card with a sunrise painting. Usually I do not paint skyscapes however, given that the request came from a friend I decided to take up the challenge. Little did I know how difficult it can be to re-create a realistic sunrise especially using acrylic paints on metal. This type of scene is more suited to pastels or oil on canvas media. I learnt a lot in the process and came up with three metal art paintings representing a sunrise over the ocean. I hope the special lady likes her gift and appreciates how fortunate she is to have such a loving man in her life. Been the incurable romantic I am the fact it was a romantic gift made up for all the sunrises I had to paint :-)
