Summer Thunder wildlife painting The contrast between the realismSummer Thunder (Diptych) Summer Thunder, oil on canvas, 200 x 120 x 2 cm on two canvas panels each measuring 100 x 120 x 2 cm (Diptych). Storm clouds gather on a hot summer day. The sun shines bright on golden wheat fields which ripple under a dancing breeze. I sit on the fence and look toward the horizon. Wildflowers bloom in the hedgerows and I feel a fresh breeze blow. I hear the Thunder and feel invigorated. After the storm I will see the beauty.
