A storm in the windy city. Can the boat that is heading back to moorings get there before the clouds unleash the full force of the storm. There is ectricity in the air. The wind blowing so hard and the sail is full. A storm is due. The lighthouse stands ready to be a beacon as the sky gets darker. Orange under-painting sets off the greens and greys of the sky beginning to be reflected in the water. Created from sketches and photos taken in Chicago, Illinois.
