Warm cloudscape

02/07/12, 10 am, looking northwest

This beautiful spring-like (68 degrees F) day began with pale high cirrus clouds. As the morning went on, the altocumulus clouds began to move in low. One can see the more irregular rounded shape of the altocumulus clouds at the bottom of the painting.


By noon, the cirrus clouds had thinned or moved higher still. They were almost transparent. The cumulus clouds moved in a white fluffy pack across the sky floating gracefully northeast.
