All people at sometime in their lives will experience the "storms of life" that turn our lives upside down. Just like a real thunderstorm,  we see the storms of our lives on the horizon. The pending storm frightens us because we don't know if it will hit us, how hard it will hit us, or how long it will last. We anticipate its arrival with fear of the unknown. The violence of the storm makes us aware that the storm has arrived and that we are tossed to and fro with the loss of all direction. But after every storm is the gentle, cleansing rain that lingers when all seems to be settling down. This is the time that we can reflect on what we have gone through and know that we are now at peace.
This mixed media art panel depicts that very rain shower after the storm. I incorporated glass bevels to depict the long flowing sheets of rain on a window. The copper pieces have rain drops embossed on them. The painted background is the swirling clouds from the storm that have come and now are gone. I used the copper and blue tones to provide a decorative art panel that would adorn any wall with vibrant colors and textures.  Something the picture cannot show is that the copper and the glass bevels are layered on the art panel. This is a 3D pc of art.
