Arctic 60n 70w
Creative Rationale
Over the Arctic Ocean northeast of Baffin Island, where the extreme cold creates a harsh crystalline landscape of ice and wind. The moderate southwest wind at 3.4 m/s drives diagonal paint drags from lower-left across the canvas, while the steep pressure gradient of 39.92 Pa reveals multiple complex layers beneath. The severe temperature anomaly of 47.1K warmer than normal creates an unexpected warmth bleeding through the cold surface layers, suggesting the drama of Arctic climate change through rich underlying reds and oranges revealed beneath icy greys and blues.
