What you get: An unframed print on heavyweight 240 gsm matte fine art paper, A3 (297 x 420 mm) or A2 (420 x 594 mm), usually sent rolled in a tube. Made to order for you. You give the storm's date and hour and a title. The wind over the Atlantic and the British Isles at that hour, painted after Mondrian: the painting on its own, or with the maps and key it was painted from beside it. The preview on this page shows your words, dates and layout; where it is marked sample weather, the weather drawn in it is an example until we make your print.
The canvas is a map of the Atlantic and the British Isles. Black lines follow where the wind changes most, and each block takes its colour from how hard it was blowing. Pick a big Atlantic storm and the colours come alive; land is drawn in grey, so a storm that peaked over land is mostly hidden, and a calm day makes a quiet painting.

Made just for you, so it cannot be returned for a change of mind, or cancelled once we have started making it (contact us straight away if you need to). If it arrives faulty or damaged, we will replace it or refund you in full.
Where the weather comes from
The weather is ERA5, a reanalysis on a grid of about 28 km, so it describes each square rather than one spot. Data: ERA5, ECMWF (Copernicus Climate Change Service), CC BY 4.0. Credits are printed on every sheet.
