Dawn's Whisper

Original abstract landscape painting by Carolyn J Roberts

A small, intimate study — quiet, contemplative, and full of early light

The first light of day stretches across the high moors, softening edges and casting a gentle glow over gritstone ridges and drifting heather. In these early hours, the wind pauses, the clouds hang low, and the landscape seems to hold its breath — moments where everything feels suspended between night and day.

Layers of watercolour, acrylic ink, and fragments of collage build a surface alive with subtle texture, while delicate mark-making captures the rhythm of mist, stone, and wind moving across the open land. Even in though it’s small in scale, the painting evokes the hush of dawn — a quiet, fleeting landscape distilled into its essence.

It invites a slower, closer look, a moment to pause and feel the soft pulse of the uplands at daybreak.
