Before the Storm

Before the Storm, L. Daniel, 12 x 16

Available at the Anderson Fine Art Gallery 
in St. Simons Island, GA


We have had some great dramatic skies on the east coast this week (still in Georgia); but I'm happy to report that we had no tornados. On this particular morning, the clouds were rolling so swiftly over the marsh that they were hard to capture. The low ones in front were menacing, while the ones in back were fluffy and illuminated! I am not sure I completely got the effect here, but it was beautiful to see.
