Set up on the beach of a friend's home in Ephraim, I watched the approaching clouds with interest. Mist rolled in like the waves, clouds changed colors and formations. As it became clear the storm was not dissipating, I passed over the oils for my inks. I have never captured clouds with ink before! Loving the challenge, I started with my lines, lightly laying them into the sky, which really means I was afraid of messing them up! Moving the ink with my water brush pen, I manipulated the clouds to represent what was before me. It was SO fun!! To darken, I simply dropped in more ink, getting the feel of the day. THAT is the plein air experience! Painting number 2013 in 2013 days!.
