Country Rain



Country Rain
22 x 28 Acrylic on canvas

   It's a hot summer day in Florida and the forecast calls for scattered showers. It's raining across the street from where your standing, your still dry and in sunlight. That's a typical day in Florida.

   Driving on Route 70 which runs east to west across Florida there are acres and acres of farmland. Green pasture as far as you can see.

   Cows and egrets are plenty but I never took the opportunity to take photos or sketch the scenes of country living. Well, as you can see I finally got the chance to capture images and transfer them onto canvas. It was worth stopping and taking in all the great things that are around us.
