Alice Rieder Wilkerson — Deltona Morning
Date:
Medium: Watercolor
Dimensions: 18' x 16"
Signature:
Painted during Alice’s years in Florida, Deltona Morning captures the quiet intensity of early light breaking across a lakeside landscape. Instead of the fiery drama of sunset, this is the soft-but-powerful glow of sunrise—an expanding burst of warm color emerging from low mist behind a stand of pines. The watercolor demonstrates Alice’s exceptional control of atmosphere: the blurred tree line, the layered smoke-like haze, and the delicate reflections on the water all show her ability to blend pigment while preserving clarity and depth.
A subtle, introspective work, it reflects her gift for translating memory, place, and morning light into a scene that feels both real and dreamlike.
