Just a few more skies ..I thought I would try to do a few more sketches this week so it’s off to the Dog Park to look across the lake. Yesterday we had another terrific storm that set off all the fire alarms again. This storm with its huge dark curl of rain sodden cloud kept just to the west of us today.
Then there are banks of fluffy clouds that sit on the horizon after the storm
and clouds that seem to be lit from within.
You have to watch your back here as storms come from nowhere. The earsplitting thunder can make you jump right out of your skin and lightning is to be respected at all times.
As Geoff, the friendly weather man tells us ..” If you can see the lightning, the lightning can see you!” .
Should you think this is a lot of fuss about nothing, Florida is the lightning state of the USA, with more deaths than all other states combined.
The Dog Park, of course, also has dogs. It’s where they bring their humans for some fresh air and fun .. Look there’s one on the bench!
I love your fresh and vital paintings and promise to check back on your works.
Welcome to the USA, which is a HUGE change for you.
How are you doing?
All joys and watch out for lightning!
