Rain



I started out today working on a floral still life on my porch - one that I had started a few days ago. The wind picked up so much that my very sturdy easel was shaking and it became hard to work. When I saw the sky, I got my camera and went down the street a block to the bay to see what was going on..............I have posted a photo of just how dramatic it looked. I am also posting a picture painted on a more peaceful day....11X14, oil/canvas - it's Third Beach in Middletown, RI. When the deluge hit I walked home and worked on some stuff in the studio , made some progress on one of my larger pictures, signed a few things and framed one thing. It is still pouring and the roads look pretty flooded.
