From the shelter of the magnificent screened porch of The River House we had sweeping views of the river and an approaching storm. The first sketch was an exercise in creating a dramatic sky (and a chance to practice more palms). The second one was sketched in paint (quickly, during a lunch break) and painted at home. Upon completion, I could see all the things I would do differently, starting with the composition. So, I have my painting assignment for today.
