I love painting dramatic clouds and this battle as the bright blue sky fights a last ditch stand against the encroaching dark storm clouds and the gathering dusk above the local fields provided an excellent subject. It is from a shot I took looking West from Shingle Hill Way just before the Brooks Creek Lane turnoff. I actually painted most of it at Calwell High School in the ACT in a painting workshop I was giving there as part of some informal artist in residence volunteering I do.
Painted in April 2024 in oil on a 16″x12″ canvas.
