Inspired by the beautiful colours over the river and in the sky; working quickly in oil to capture these with the painting being done on board.

Turbulent sky
There was quite a strong wind blowing when I did this painting and there was intermittent rain; the sky took on some really interesting colour and there was much varying colour in the river also. Painting with a strong metal easel, it was sometimes lifted by the strong wind which had presented quite a challenge.
The sky had appeared quite heavy at times and there seemed many different cloud patterns; many long and striking shadows appeared to come and go over the river. I tried to capture this.
