Une vision totalement réaliste de ville sous la pluie... J'ai envie de me protéger d'elle en admirant votre peinture... Je sens presque l'humidité de l'atmosphère.
Gros bisous

I was thinking exactly as BoholstWife said. In fact, I was wishing that Michael's windshield was clean so that it would look this good! I love rainy days and this one looks fabulous!

Me encanta el ambiente que la lluvia le otorga al paisaje, en este caso melancolía pura...

Felicitaciones por tu pintura, Celeste.

Abrazos!

Magical. Silver shimmering wonder. This almost makes me want to leave sunny Miami and move there! Almost. ;)

I really like this one. Not just because I can relate to the rain like you. It just works.
