The cold air side of the front is always the baroclinic side. By 3 pm I had finished my chores so the family Chesapeake Jazzmin and I went out to the front yard of Watershed Farm to paint the clouds.

What a beautiful memory and what a glorious day! This is so abstract and yet the space and depth and distance are so real. Spontaneous, wild and free...with brilliant and sophisticated palette for the real weather and the forest land. Fantastic! l/f
