Summer Rain Painting

Painted during an uncertain year, I wanted to capture the peacefulness of accepting that there are things we do not have control over. During summer, when I was off work, I felt more connected to the nature around me, and wanted to paint a model enjoying unexpected summer rain. To capture the rawness of nature, it was important to me that brush strokes were visible. This oil painting is varnished to a satin finish, and unframed.
