Arctic 70n 20w
Creative Rationale
**Artistic Interpretation:** This piece captures the fierce Arctic storm through explosive color bursts radiating from multiple energy centers, inspired by Sam Francis's dynamic compositions. The high winds (16.8 m/s) drive violent splashes of deep blues and purples that streak across the canvas, while the extreme cold creates crystalline whites and ice-blues that fragment and scatter. The high humidity and precipitation manifest as fluid, organic forms that bleed and pool at the edges, leaving dramatic negative space in the center where the storm's eye breathes. ```svg
