#2634 "Turbulent Stratocumulus Ahead of a Spring Cold Front"

#2634 "Turbulent Stratocumulus Ahead of a Spring Cold Front"
11x14 inches oil

My chores were done and I had some time to paint. The wind were brisk from the south in the warm sector of the storm but quite bearable in the lee of the Singleton Forest. 

The cold front was expected to arrive around 1 pm with some heavy showers but that still gave me a couple of hours. Streets of turbulent stratocumulus were billowing along with those gusty southwesterly winds and provided the inspiration. This is essentially a skyscape with the terrain of the outflow of Jim Day Rapids providing the foreground. There was still a bit of snow on the northern sides of the marble ridges. It was a great day to stay home (like everyday).
