The Storm, Cape May

A few years ago, Cape May’s not-for-profit organization, MAC, had an exhibit about the storms that have struck the town through history. They asked painters to send in pictures on the theme. This was my submission. Clearly, it owes a great debt to Hokusai’s Great Wave – but in a Western, Impressionist style. I really like its graphic strength, the many blue colors, and the threatening, night-time, atmosphere.
