The reference photo for this was taken in September. I so wished I could paint that sky. Finally worked up the courage to try. Should call this a study, as I will be painting it again. Also because I learned a lot while working on it.
Thought I botched it good (see right). Added a wash over the entire sky and felt better. Then I added the puffy clouds. They look a little cartoony to me. Maybe I just need to add a few more. Or make them bigger. Or? They are showing as white, but they are a lighter shade of the same peachy pink. I will keep that in mind for next time. Happy with the rest, and the experience!
Here is a peek at the 4 x 4 canvas I mentioned. I LOVE how the white paint formed little circles (near the center). How did I do that? Wish I knew so I could do it again! Very excited about this little, whatever it is going to become.
Take a peek at everyone’s day three!
