Lake Dora Earthquake $400

This is a plein air painting done in Mt. Dora, Florida. There was an earthquake in the Gulf of Mexico while I was painting on the dock overlooking the lake. I felt the dock shaking when the tremor went through Central Florida. Original image size: 11x14.

Excellent tropical landscape and the ever present threat of stormy weather. We do trade somethings for that lovely sunny atmosphere in Florida. This is a tremendous painting of the ominous cloud banks building. Great work. Michael

GREAT PRESENCE OF MIND TO PAINT SO PRETTY DURING A QUAKE!

Artist Reply: Well, I have to admit that for a few moments during the slight tremor my first thought was a sink hole had opened up under the lake and I was wondering what to grab first -- my painting or my supplies!
