Because it has been so dry, the bluebonnets have been sparse this year. This is a scene on the way to Fredericksburg, Texas.

Storm Clouds Plein Air - Caroline Ratliff


Storm Clouds
8 x 10
oil

The clouds moved in fast but we didn't get the much wanted rain. I painted the clouds first to get the effect that they were moving and beginning to storm. In a short time the sun was out and it was a totally different scene.

Brazos Bend is a favorite place to paint. It has changed every time I visit. I was there last week and the colors were awesome. The changing light forces you to look carefully and paint fast.
