Don’t wait for the storms of your life to pass. Learn to dance in the rain.

~ Steve Rizzo

Inspired by summer thunderstorms, it is incredible how much I missed them during winter!

"Dancing in the Rain" is a 12x12" oil painting on an aluminum composite panel. It captures the enchanting essence of a summer thunderstorm at Nose Hill Park in Calgary. The artwork utilizes a palette of blues, grays, muted greens, and pinks to create a mesmerizing interplay between illuminated and darker clouds.

Distinguished by its inventive approach, the painting employs a varied array of tools to manipulate the oil medium on a sleek surface, complemented by an acrylic underpainting. This artistic method imparts a distinctive texture, fostering a dynamic interplay that evokes a profound sense of depth and motion throughout the canvas. "Dancing in the Rain" evokes the sensations of fresh rain, wet grass, and the promise of water, offering a captivating visual experience.

Original oil painting, 12x12 inches on aluminum composite mounted on a cradled birch panel. Varnished and ready to hang without the need for a frame. The sides have been stained showing natural wood and it comes with a certificate of authenticity.
