“DREAMLIKE SUNSET” by Kira Fercho

The yellow background sky in this painting reminds me of a dreamlike sunrise—that fleeting moment when night gives way to light, and everything feels suspended in possibility. It evokes warmth, hope, and a sacred stillness, like the land is holding its breath before the day fully awakens. There’s also something ancient in that yellow—like sun-painted canyon walls or the glow of buffalo grass in early morning light. It reminds me of storytelling fires under open skies, where the sky isn’t just atmosphere—it’s a witness. At the same time, paired with the explosive colors and movement, the yellow sky feels a like the spiritual realm is breaking through into our world, lighting everything with a kind of sacred chaos.
