Astronomical Twilight

Gillian Murphy is renowned for her emphasis on light and the effects natural light has on our surroundings. What is a more interesting moment in time, than that short period between day and night when the Sun is below the horizon but its rays still light up the sky – twilight! . Astronomical twilight is the darkest of the 3 twilight phases. It is the earliest stage of dawn in the morning and the last stage of dusk in the evening. … captured and depicted rather magnificently here by Gillian, in acrylics on board.
