Interludes: Evening Romance

In this series, I try to capture the moment just before a romantic evening begins.

… A moment filled with joy and anticipation.

And, a bit of mystery! In each painting, I imagine something is about to happen. For example, in "Sparkling Evening" on the right, what is the significance of the jewelry box? Is someone about to open it and get a wonderful surprise?

I hope you will remember times like this in your own life and let the feelings return!
