Art: Storm Clouds Parting by Artist Carol Thompson

"The wind and rain on the sea have diminished and with 'storm clouds parting', a quiet, perhaps sunny afternoon is on the horizon!"

Artist comment:  "I love painting oil paintings of the ocean in all her many moods.  Here a late afternoon storm breaks up and blue sky appears with the sun very low;  spotlighting a rising translucent wave.  I began with an idea, sketched it, and immediately began to paint.  I liked the effect of a 'hole' in the clouds with dark edges.  The strong sunlight behind the translucent wave creates a very dark foam pattern on the curving water.  The purples were a great counter point to the yellows and greens.  I like having a secondary translucency 'scooting' across the painting"
