After the Rain

A sudden summer rainstorm always brings interesting changes to the mountain landscape. After the rain ended, the remaining clouds were accented by a hint of the setting sun. An ethereal haze seemed to weave through the landscape. You never know where or when inspiration will strike! In this instance, sitting on the back porch of a country mountain inn was the ideal setting. The old cabin nestled at the foot of the mountain rise has likely witnessed many such storms. Inspired by a visit to Highlands, North Carolina. Oil on gallery wrapped canvas.
