Description

This was Day Two of the Paint the Town Kingston event of the Annual International Plein Air Painters (IPAP) Paint Out affiliated with the Kingston School of Art 2019.

The sun had turned the day into a very pleasant plein air experience. The warm September sun was on my back. I looked across the outflow of the Cataraqui River just before it entered Lake Ontario. The buildings of the new and old Kingston stood against a backdrop of green trees and vigourous cumulus clouds. The air mass was unstable and ready to explode with a bit more heating from the September sun.

I went for lunch at the St Louis Bar and Grill ... it was a good day. Maybe the POP should have been higher than the 43 which was officially posted by Environment Canada. Surprisingly given the northwesterly wind, a cold front was poised to the northwest which would arrive late in the afternoon with thunderstorms. Typically the winds have a southerly component in the warm sector of a weather system. The wind pattern was under the influence of Hurricane Dorian that was ripping up and wreaking havoc on the east coast. The line of thunderstorms along that approaching cold front would bring some hail as well.

This was my last painting of the IPAP World-Wide Paintout of 2019.
