Take deep blue piece paper -- not quite night-blue and not day-blue. Something in-between. Mix silver, gold and white paint. Add a hint of orange. Begin with a dot on the not-night not-day blue page, using fingers to smoosh and fuzzy up the edges of the imperfect circular shape. The focus center should shine. The edges should shimmer. That is the Sun right now, outside, as dawn unfolds. It's a piece of art hanging in the sky, like some imaginative child drew it and left it behind. #smallstories
