Dear {{firstname}}

Skies Sunrise Panorama

Do you love looking up at the sky and seeing the amazing shades of ultramarine blending to cerulean with clouds passing by? Are you amazed by the stormy colors of Payne’s grey, midnight blue and everything in-between that comes in the desert sky? Are you obsessed with the beautiful rose, peach and dusky mauves of the desert sunset or the pyrrole oranges of a fiery sunrise?

It’s been almost a year since I’ve been to the desert, and the memories have been coming more frequently which means my soul is yearning to see the open skies again. The expansiveness and peace of the desert always inspire me so I can return feeling like I am renewed.

I’m not able to get away right now but I was looking at my photos and thought you would enjoy some of them too. Do you enjoy getting creative inspiration from nature? If you made a palette to remind you of the desert skies, which colors would you choose?
