Venice Beach

Morning Storm
pastel
8" x 11"
      A group of us got to the beach early and started painting.  The sky and shadows were gorgeous!  Love it when the Gulf looks light green against purple clouds.  Unfortunately, the clouds were heading straight towards us.  A couple of lightning bolts were all it took to chase us off the beach.  We sat it out inside my van while the rain pounded the roof.  When a rainbow bloomed over the Gulf we set out again to paint for several more hours.  Unusual to have morning thunderstorms, they usual happen just in time for cocktail hour in the evening.
