Drizzle, drizzle RAIN!

"Rainy Day in Båstad Bay" 18x30cm





The sky was ominous, but I thought Id miss the rain. No such luck. When the first drop hit the easel, I quickly retreated to Badkrukan, the nearby Beach Restaurant, and set up in one of the changing rooms. Rain came tumbling down, but I was alright! I could even order a glass of wine and drink it whilst painting. Most pleasant! The difficulty is to find a balance between all the grays, and make sure that the darks really are quite dark. Being my first rain painting, it was challenging to say the least!
