W&N watercolour on Bockingford 300gsm
It has been raining solidly, every day, for over two weeks now and the landscape is saturated with water, forming large pans of water everywhere. Some days my rain gauge overflows, meaning more than 120mm in just a few hours! My chooks are bedraggled and wet, choosing the safety and dryness of the coop. While all this water is excellent for our ground water tables, it has caused massive flooding and damage in large parts of South Africa. I think we're getting a spin-off from all the ice storms and flooding in the Northern Hemisphere, because this is most unusual weather for us.

Here's hoping you see some sun real soon. Lovely painting!
ReplyDeleteThank you Carol! And yes, yesterday we did see some sun, followed by a huge thunderstorm! he he! And today we've got some clouds but mostly sun.
DeleteIt is very worrisome how various areas are getting such extremes. You sound really wet! The wetness shows well in your painting.
ReplyDeleteThank you Elva! Checked the rain gauge after another day of rain, it was overflowing and it's marked 100mm!
