Oil on canvas | 36 x 48 inches
In Strength For Us All, a monumental storm rises above an open Midwestern landscape, its luminous cloud mass emerging from shadow and expanding into light. The composition balances density and release — darkened sky pressing inward while illumination builds at the horizon.
Painted at a commanding 36 x 48 inches, this large-scale oil painting explores collective endurance — the kind of strength that holds steady beneath pressure. Layers of ultramarine, charcoal, and softened white create depth and atmosphere, while the grounded horizon anchors the viewer in stillness.
Part of the Storm Collection, this work reflects Janine Crum’s ongoing study of resilience, scale, and the emotional architecture of weather across vast landscapes.
Special thanks to storm chaser, Justin Snead, for allowing me to use his photograph as inspiration for this painting.
