Creative Rationale

Over the North Atlantic, roughly 600 miles west of the northern coast of Spain, moderate winds from the northwest carry moisture-laden air across relatively warm waters for the season. The steady sea-level pressure and moderate humidity create conditions ripe for light precipitation, while the temperature anomaly suggests an unusual warmth that I'll interpret through Francis's luminous color philosophy. I'm envisioning a composition where energetic color bursts radiate from multiple points along the canvas edges, with warm oranges and magentas representing the temperature anomaly, while cooler blues and grays in the center suggest the oceanic setting and moderate precipitation.
