#2702 "Suppertime September Singleton Thunderstorms"

#2702 "Suppertime September Singleton Thunderstorms"
14x18 inches oils

The title reflects my ongoing effort to never duplicate the name of an existing painting. The title pretty much reveals everything about the painting. The thunderstorms occurred before dinner on Monday, September 26th, 2022. I interrupted the supper preparations to go out to stand by the red Muskoka chairs of our Singleton Home overlooking the lake to our west. The thunderstorm was triggered along an indistinct and weak cold front. The real autumn cold air was still back over North Bay and would not arrive for another couple of days. 

The reflections and the dynamics of the airflow around the convective cell caught my eye along with the multitude of shapes and colours.

There are many ways to examine the weather including oil paints. 

The white beacon of Wicks Pick Lodge stood out on the western shore of Singleton along with a light at the campground, entering its final weekend of the season. Singleton Lake was about to get very quiet in the approaching autumn slumber.
