This painting was created DURING a torrential thunderstorm.  As I rushed to paint the approaching cold front, my motif was obliterated by the downpour and the air overhead, literally, crackled with electricity!  These two, huge cottonwood trees frame my view to the west, looking toward Arrowrock.  The paint surface is covered with streams of pigment and craters -- artifacts of the rainstorm.  Paint Detail
