Front Range Thunderstorm (Painting as of January 3, 2022)



This painting is based on a photo* that I took in 2006 while I was stuck in traffic driving through Colorado Springs during a late afternoon thunderstorm.  In Colorado, it is very likely to rain around 4 PM. Sometimes the storm leaves so fast that the sun is shining while it rains. Today's post shows that at this point in the process, I was working on the sky, using purple tissue paper to suggest storm clouds and gray tissue paper to suggest rain.  To be continued. . . .
