Summer Sky

 

 I love her description of this 9 x 9 painting below titled "Breakthrough"

This is a sky that is part from a reference and part from memory. You know how it is...you're traveling, you see the storm in the distance, and now and again there seems to be a breakthrough of light and rain that just couldn't be held back. Then it always makes me think about that one place, what's happening right underneath that spill of light and rain?This is a sky that is part from a reference and part from memory.
