Painting Oil on Canvas Stormy Sky with Horse "Before the Storm" 16" x 20"
Loosely based on a photograph by one of my favorite National Geographic photographers, Stephen Wilkes, this painting was done using Winsor and Newton water-mixable oil paints. I love stormy skies and in another life I might have been a storm chaser. The focal point is the overwhelming and almost cavernous, cloud-filled sky. This is juxtaposed with the horse, intentionally painted in a much smaller scale to give the sense of distance and being swallowed up by the sky. The image is almost peaceful for all its ominous undertones. 
The sides of canvas are painted using the same color palette as the painting. The artwork is signed on the front and dated on the back. It is varnished and will arrive ready to hang. 
Keep in mind that all computer monitors display color differently, so your painting may differ slightly in color from the image you see onscreen.
