11/21/10 Extremely tired


I got so little sleep last night that the first thing I did when I got home from work is I went straight back to bed. It was a beautiful day weather wise or at least I thought so when the rain gave way and the sky became full of large fluffy clouds. (The kind you can see shapes in.) But my mind was still on the lightning last night, and I wished we would have more of those storms because we just don't get that here. When I got home after my nap I started to paint and this is what came out. I can't figure out if it's a reflection of my feelings for today or if it's just what I wanted to paint. The brown and blue are supposed to represent the stillness of the what is under the surface, it's not the foreground. Even though I've never seen a tornado first hand, thank God, I still love the subject. Nature's version of irrational I think. Chaos comes in many forms, but after these you see things like cars in trees and overturned houses. The word that occurs to me is irrational.
