As you know, Summer is my favorite season, and right now it's a long way away. This study comes from my old landscape sketchbook from the early 1990s. I drew it when the air was thick with vapor and humidity, my favorite weather. It's often before or after a thunderstorm. The green leaves as seen through the mist are seen as blue-green, even aqua, as the clouds and fog dissipate. After dark I watch for flickers of lightning in the warm night mist.
