How to paint clouds

[@desigreen1916]

Something to add is that the sky shouldnt just be darker, but also more saturated. Between you and a distant mountain, there are tons of particulates in the air. These scatter and absorb different parts of the light spectrum and lead to a more muted color (in addition to changing the brightness)

I haven't painted in YEARS, but I'll save this very helpful tidbit if I ever start up again! 😊☁️

Can’t erase pencil guidelines once you have watercolored over them.

Todays vocabulary is Foreshortening and Atmospheric Perspective😁

One rule of thumb I use is when painting a day landscape, everything gets lighter towards the horizon and when panting a night scene everything gets darker towards the horizon.

I always struggle with highlights in watercolor painting..But your trick to soak the paint off with the help of a tissue is amazing ..

[@RelatablyRational]

My very first painting in watercolor was made yesterday using this technique...Thank You Dear ❤😊

I just got your course I can’t wait to learn more 🎨

[@nancykatherine9579]

absolutely GORGEOUS. That being said it totally depends on what time of day you're painting. Depends on the weather etc. today the sky was lit up dark purple and red while the tree line ( far away ) was a much lighter yellow.
