RAIN Structure
Years ago, during a relentless drought, I felt an urge to paint the energy of rain. As I let the brush move, a title came into my awareness: The Incredible Structure of Rain. It was as if the painting already existed and was waiting to be revealed.
What emerged was a blend of geometric forms and free-flowing asymmetry, structure and movement woven together like the nature of rain itself. It caught the paradox of water — the way it follows patterns in the atmosphere and still lands where it will.
Green dominated the piece, soothing and full of promise. In the middle of a drought, green was a longing and a prayer for renewal, and as I painted I felt my own spirit refreshed, as if I were calling rain not just to the land but to myself.
I still feel a reverence when I look at it — for rain's balance, its unpredictability, its power to change the world with a single storm. It reminds me that even in the driest times, literal or figurative, renewal is always waiting to take shape in its own unexpected way.
