Flying Up The Face

So I was driving around right after the rain.(It's rained alot in SoCal in the last few months)
The water on the winshield wasn't enough to really need to turn on the windshield wipers. When I got on the freeway and started going fast the water dropplets on the winshield then started slurping/sucking up going upward, up the windshield towards the roof of the car. Made me feel like I was going into superfast warp speed & it exaggerated the speed/movement of the car.
I realized that it related to a waveface, when offshore winds blow up the face of the wave and give texture to the surface of the wave.

It also related to the paintings I do where I invert drips across a taped off/masked off fluid grid system.

Then it hit me (dude,you should have done that style across a surf style/fluid wave taped off grid system long ago. )

So I got to taping off a canvas right away. (I'm 4+ coats into this one now, its finally building up and getting all thick and I'm lovin it.)

Base Coat. Took 9+ hrs. to tape this off w/blue painters tape.
