Creative Rationale

Over the Columbia River plateau in eastern Washington state, where the dry inland winds meet the continental divide, atmospheric conditions create a unique visual symphony. The extremely low sea-level pressure of 858.2 Pa with its steep gradient generates heavy, anchored forms that sink toward the canvas bottom, while the moderate easterly wind at 3.5 m/s from 75 degrees establishes a gentle diagonal rhythm moving from upper left to lower right. The near-freezing temperature of 0.2 K calls for deep, bass-like circular forms and thick geometric elements, while the dry 40% humidity and absence of precipitation create sharp, crystalline edges in this abstract musical composition.
