Defining a Word Through Fine Art

I'm using this blog post to bring attention to the fine art world on Etsy by choosing one word and posting how different artists present it through their work.

As a photographer, knowing when the light outside is just right is all part of taking a good photograph. I think most photographers would agree that in the middle of the day in the sun is ... not so good. I always take my photos on cloudy days or in the shade. I've been known to stand in between the hot sun and my subject in order to shade it.
Early morning - a rocking time for photos, and if there's some fog too ... wow! But, I think maybe the most inspirational, eye catching and exciting part of the day for images, all images: for painters, photographers and the like just might be at the end of the day. Twilight, a setting sun, long shadows, smoke in the air ... dusk. Doesn't that all sound like a wonderful time for images?
Well, guess what ... this week's word is ... dusk. Let's see what's out there!
