Chicago Fog

Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas 24x30
The fog rolls in from lake Michigan and covers the lower parts of the city while the tallest skyscrapers hold their heads above the swirling blanket. But the poet Carl Sandburg - Chicago Poems 1916, said it best;

Fog

The Fog comes
On little cat feet.

It sits looking
Over harbor and city
On silent haunches
And then moves on.
