I love to paint on rainy days.
There is something about the drama of thunder
lightening and rain pouring down.
It is pretty intoxicating to me.
Rain is a good inspiration for those that like a bit of unexpected noise
and subtle interruptions.
I love the force of it.
The sheer determination of the rain to beat into the sidewalk
the ground
puddling up
and splashing its presence to be know.
If you ignore it
it soaks you anyway.
If you run from it
it blows into you.
And soaks you anyway!
You have to love that kind of determination.
You have to love that kind of drama.
I love to paint to the rain falling.
I love to look outside and think
water
greens
blues
soft purples
or the darkened sky.
patches of rumbly clouds
over your head
all around you.
I love to paint on a rainy day.
