Gulf Storm

24” x 30” • Oil on Canvas

Wrapped in a violet shawl, a woman sits in a weathered rocking chair and watches rain fall over the Gulf. Shell chimes hang from the porch roof as lightning breaks beneath the purple clouds, tracing a bright line across the dark water.

The scene holds the stillness of watching a storm from a familiar porch, close enough to see the rain coming and sheltered enough to stay a little longer.
