I am hoping someone will send a boat if it is needed
because the rain is bucketing down in a mildly concerning way
it is lashing the window in the studio in great sheets on water
and the bamboo is so heavy with water it is drooping over into the pool
so it is quite the thing to watch it all unfold
as the pool overflows... again
crap for painting as the paper is so soggy it may as well be sitting out in the downpour
and every time one of the palm fronds or bamboo hit the window I jump like crazy
which is not conducive to any careful painting
but things can't always be perfect
As a self confessed weather geek it is oddly satisfying to be in the middle of a rain event
I watch the weather channel like Sinus watches sport
it is my happy place and I love that you can scoff and heckle their predictions with impunity
of course sometimes they are right on the money
and the predicted deluge is certainly living up to their drama queen headlines and titles
Phants is not sharing my glee as she has to head out to uni for lectures
but she is young and a bit of wild weather adventure is good for the soul
plus a bit of light wading across the Great Court will add some excitement
I am going to get back to attempting some more painting
the warm up painting of my sugar free cranberry juice
which always looks inspiring against my favourite table cloth
was fun despite the weather induced challenges
so I am glad I finally got around to painting it up
of course I could have gotten in and actually ironed the table cloth
but who has time for that!!!
happy painting all... xx
