I was going through my recent plein air paintings and found a couple
that I had not blogged about yet! Bummer, because I've found it to be
the best way to chronicle works over time. And of course, this started
around Thanksgiving, when I somehow allow the rush of the holidays to
disrupt everything, rather than to just go with the flow. Like
swimming, you don't want to panic in the water - instead, just relax and
go with it.
On this particular day (October 17th, 2012) I had painted another one
just before this (High Tide Before The Storm, see blog post of Oct.
17th, 2012). When I finished, I turned my easel in the opposite
direction and the passing cloud cover was truly fascinating. I finished
this just as a line of showers came through. Cleaned up & made it
to the car before getting soaked! Now that was a good day of painting!
