Original artwork description:

We were out to Frankfurt on one of our usual weekend trips sometime in May. It looked all bright and sunny when we left, and so we drove off as usual without checking the weather. I live less than half an hour away from Frankfurt, but this was the scene by the time we entered the city. That's how predictable the weather is in my part of the world. While I got really irritated that I could not walk around taking any "summery" pictures, the rains offered a completely new opportunity.:-)

While we stopped at a signal, I clicked this scene in front of me. I have not had the chance to paint rain as much as I'd like, and I did not want to miss out on this one. Thank you for looking!

This original painting is done on stretched canvas. The sides are painted black so that it can be displayed without a frame.

Materials used:

gesso, acrylic paints, varnish
