Fury from Above

Medium: Soft Pastel on Board
Inspired from my travels around the world I created this piece from a photo taken of a very wild and angry sky. I was staying on an island close to Thailand when I witnessed an incredible storm that came in from the sea and wrecked havoc on the shoreline, turning over tables and chairs and lashing out at the palm trees. It came and went in minutes and I watched as the angry skies tore at the earth then retreated back from where they came, as if they were expressing 'fury from above'.
