On my easel the third day day in Algonquin Park on Rain Lake… did a quick 12×12 acrylic study of the view. Painted on a cool underpainting, working from dark to light. I was just about finished when the clouds opened up and started raining on me. There was nothing I could do about the raindrops, which lifted the partially dried acrylic off. But I kind of like it, the natural rain drops from Rain Lake captured on my painting.

Was our “worst weather,” a few scattered showers which drove us inside to play cards for a couple hours. A welcome rest after the big portage to McCraney Lake the day before.
