The sun has finally come out after a rainy night in Georgia. I couldn’t help but think this morning when it was still raining, of the refrain in the song I associate with Ray Charles, “Rainy Night in Georgia”….
“A rainy night in Georgia, A rainy night in Georgia, It seems like it's rainin' all over the world I feel like it's rainin' all over the world “ What a great bluesy song! If you read all of the lyrics you’ll notice that the songwriter, Tony Joe White, paints a series of pictures with his words, much as artists do with paint. And if you listen to Ray Charles singing this song as I am now, he adds his own lyrics making the picture he paints his very own (listen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFatAWbKow4). Today’s painting is loosely based on one of my photos and seems to express how I feel about today’s weather. The wind is blowing the dark storm clouds far away leaving us with glimpses of a brilliant sun-lit sky. A good way to think about leaving the work-week behind us with a great weekend ahead.
