Description
There were only a very few early morning joggers out at 7 am for the second day of the 2020 International Plein Air Painters (IPAP) Worldwide Paint Out. The International Plein Air Painters is a blanket organization created for the sole purpose of advancing the execution and enjoyment of plein air painting without the restrictions and limitations of borders or regions. I am a Charter and a Signature member dating from the fall of 2001. The horrific events of September 11th, 2001 prompted the creation of IPAP. Art is a universal language and we all benefit. The world needed the strong and positive response of art created outside and surrounded by nature.
The nocturnal fog that had formed over Lake Ontario was already lifting due to the September sun. Southerly surface winds were shedding the fog which would soon be gone due to turbulent mixing and daytime heating. It was going to be a gorgeous late summer day. People were already increasing in numbers at Battery Park.
The gravity waves in the cirrocumulus told the story of the next storm. A southerly warm conveyor belt would bring more high cloudiness across Kingston during the day. Sunday would be overcast with rain. It was best to paint while the sun shone so that is what I did. Kingston was still under the anticyclonic companion of the warm conveyor belt so there was still plenty of time to paint.

Fantastic abstract clouds and so interesting with the red ground popping through...the simplicity and elegance of this minimalistic statement is fabulous. Love the color and shapes and composition! Beautiful! l/f

One thing I have learned over the years is to keep it simple and let the brush do the work. The colours and composition get messy when the oils are over-worked and laboured. Thank you kindly Sunny!
