The scent of rain on wild things

The scent of rain on wild things, acrylic enamel and oil on canvas,  80 x 80 x 2 cm.

Rain smells good

The fresh and sweet

I breathe deep

I fill my lungs

Earth

Nature

I am

part off

this wild thing.

My inspiration, fresh rain. Breathing deep I feel connected to the earth. The sky is grey white, the undergrowth tangled and damp. Shoots of green stand proud, defiant.  Small flowers give hints of colour yet to come. This was my inspiration for The scent of rain on wild things.

The scent of rain on wild things has been coated in a satin varnish and is ready to hang.
