photo of the day

My friend Rebbecca took this photo from her apt. in NPT long island. There was a big storm and/ or tornado that tore through and did some damage. As a child in Texas I saw a lot of tornadoes and these clouds have that same ominous color and feel that would swell up before a twister touched down. I think I will paint an oil from this photo soon. This reminds me of work of the painter Courbet.
