There are early spring fast-moving storms moving across the lands.. and with all the activity.. only a taste of rain. Here in the low deserts of southern Arizona the temperature is already in the high 70's. In another month it will be hot and time to think about heading up the next level in elevation.. back to northern Nevada.
Maybe because of the dramatic scudding clouds with the moving light turning the landscapes into a kaleidoscope.. I was inspired to try a rain painting of the Nevada desert [where I am from]. The high sage plains of the western Outback.. the smell of wet sage which is like no other.. so evocative of the Great Basin.. the vast high desert in the American West.
