Charles E. Burchfield (1893-1967), West Wind in May, 1940; watercolor on paper, 28 x 24; Image from the Burchfield Penney Art Center Archives
A cold morning – big wind – great rainy sky –
Today marks transition of spring feeling to summer – wind all morn – never clearing – a hot wind roars & tears from SW – summer wind –
