We’ve had several days of rain here in Bear River and everything is lush. The leaves are still that pale green that spring brings.
I sat in the studio today and listened to a wonderful CBC podcast interview with composer Philip Glass while I painted this scene out of the window. There were many examples he gave about his musical experiences that I could relate to in terms of painting.
It was an afternoon of bliss to paint this scene and to hear Glass talk about how he too is inspired by Nova Scotia landscape.
Please contact me if you are interested in purchasing this painting.
Here is Metamorphosis from Philip Glass. Sometimes I listen to it while I’m painting.
Flora, this is stunning! Thanks so much for sharing your new painting with us. And thanks for sharing the Philip Glass link with us. Listening to it right now. – Tom
Thank you Tom! And I am listening to that music right now too. Ah the internet.
Seriously. Your painting is amazing. I totally love it and am moved by it. – Tom
Thank you Tom…for real! The movement of the wind, rain, stormy clouds etc was really a thrill to watch. I LOVE Nature.
