#2371 "Late May Evening Rain"

A cold frontal line of thunderstorms was bearing down on Singleton Lake. The surface front had just passed by. The cloud level winds had already veered around to the northwest. I did not seen any lightning. Temperatures that were in the high twenties Celsius dropped into the single digits in less than an hour. Heat started to leave the pool. The water felt warmer than the air when I went swimming. I was trying to keep my brush strokes bold and to a minimum in number. Always be bold. You do not go anywhere new as an artist if you follow someone else.
The thunderstorms west of Singleton
do not show up in the observing network -
only on remote sensing. 
The Wicks Pick Lodge Cottages stood out like a beacon against the spring forest on the western shore of Singleton Lake.
