Puget Sound Drizzle 47n 122w

Creative Rationale

Over the Puget Sound region of Washington State, where maritime air creates persistent drizzle between the Olympic Mountains and Cascades, the moderate pressure gradient and gentle southwest wind suggest layers of memory settling like sediment. The slight temperature anomaly and high humidity create conditions for translucent overlapping, where earlier gestural marks breathe through subsequent painted surfaces like thoughts half-remembered, while the light precipitation adds vertical streaks that mark time's passage through the composition.
