Hi Prof. Dan

I am not really into art I like sunrises and sunsets maybe you could write about a classical picture that shows these qualities I already mentioned that I do not care for the classics to my professors and classmates in the forum so please remember this.

 There really isn't any famous paintings that I have connected with except for canvases  of sunrises. Sunrises and beach scenes are my favorite especially if they are vivid. When God invites me  to see an amazing sunrise or the sun going down I am in awe and realize that there is a God and the lesson is God is here and there is no mistake that He created the earth. "Dare to dream" is another lesson I have learned from viewing sunrises. A company named Canvas Paintings.com have very beautiful paintings and I hope to own one of their paintings in the future. I also hope to one day retire and live near the ocean  in the future but I can always dream. Can't I?

These are my words from my forum.
