BBC: Painting the Weather
Everybody  talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it, right? Well, some people paint it instead of just complaining about the wind and rain. The British Museum collected over 100 of the best weather paintings from around the U.K. for this dramatic online collection. Need some sun? Check out Van Gogh's bright yellow Sunflowers or James Thomas Linnell's peaceful Springtime. Looking for rain? Here's a sudden shower at Ohashi Bridge. Choose a theme such as extreme weather to get a different forecast. The museum director is waiting to act as your weatherman with his tour of the exhibit. Kids and wanna-be painters might enjoy making their own weather with the ready-to-color versions of some pictures. These artistic visions of weather quickly turn clouds into sun. (in Visual Arts) |
