I like backlit stratocumulus. The colours of clouds in the sunset sky can be very rich especially at the time of the winter solstice. The colours of the ice were also strong and varied greatly with age and snow cover. The sun was still out of the picture with sunset 37 minutes away at 4:41 pm. The sun glint off the fresh snow created a white line on the horizon. The fresh and thin ice over the eastern basin of Singleton was much more grey. The northwesterly winds were pushing the stratocumulus along but with sunset both the clouds and the chilly surface winds would be gone. The radiational inversion would enforce itself with the departure on the sun. Every sky has a story to tell.

This skyscape is on a small and very slippery surface. Painting should be fun.

I paint outside - nothing between my eyes and the inspiration. That special connectivity gets into the pigments and you quickly realize that we are all stewards of the land, privileged to appreciate its beauty during our lifetime but responsible for leaving the environment better off for the future and all inhabitants...
