Autumn Sky

Here's a small study of clouds.  I want to paint a series of cloudy skies using different mediums.  I think I will probably do some large ones in oil but I thought I would start small.  I want the sky to be the center of attention so I just painted a sliver of ground with some loosely painted trees changing color.

  1. Bonjour,

    J'aime perdre mon regard dans le ciel... Il nous entraîne à la rêverie.
    Une très bonne idée que de peindre une série de cieux... Ce premier est calme, doux et serein. Très jolie peinture.

    Gros bisous

    1. Merci Martinealison. Je suis impatient de traduire les nuages ​​sur papier et sur toile.

  2. Skies just draw us in, don't they? I work on them in bits of time. Nice sky painting!

  3. Wonderful clouds! I love painting clouds - never tried your scale & composition. I may "steal" it for a piece or 2! :)

  4. These clouds are powerful as well as beautiful, Nancy.
    In my workshop today, a girl did three panels of just skies..connecting to look like one huge painting.. it was really nice as well. Your clouds look VERY realistic.!!!
