'Spring Storm' Painting

Springtime can bring all kinds of weather and some of it dramatic. Quite often a sharp Spring storm can be on a quite chilly day or occasionally on a sultry mild one. Whatever, the day the storm, though short can be intensive and the wet after effect can take ages to clear. On this occasion the day was slightly more on the cold side and then a brief storm hit around mid-morning before the day had really woken up. The result after the rain stopped was not only the overriding smell of beautiful clean fresh air but also the dramatic effect upon the countryside as the water seemed to suppress all the textures of the landscape accompanied by a damp mist that just hung in the air. Then slowly the light of a weak morning sun began to burn the moisture as the gentle colours of springtime and their textures re-emerged after the storm. I have tried to capture just that moment as it began to happen. It feels good to be more expressionist with colour and explore the texture that it creates through the layers of pastel.
