First new art for 2024. A combination of copic markers and watercolor for the sunset, although the watercolors did not take as well as I'd hoped even after I soaked the paper. Better luck next time I guess!

I wanted to depict the sunrise/sunset phenomenon known as the belt of Venus here, which is something I have always loved but never knew the name of until now. If you're wondering, from Google/Wikipedia:

"The Belt of Venus (also called Venus's Girdle, the antitwilight arch, or antitwilight) is an atmospheric phenomenon visible shortly before sunrise or after sunset, during civil twilight. It is a pinkish glow that surrounds the observer, extending roughly 10–20° above the horizon."
