After the rain

Freda Surgenor

After the rain

This painting is acrylic on stretched canvas.

We went to the movies at Sydney Harbour and when we arrived, the rain was pouring down. I was struck by the sparkling reflections on the esplanade and the softness of the colours in the distance. I rushed to get my camera and quickly took photos before it stopped.
I have used warmer colours than the photo showed, creating the feeling of the sun behind the clouds, just about to break through.
