(3) Cloud Layer Practice: Paint Beautiful Clouds to Display Light, Color and Depth
We will attempt to create a richness of texture and color in the clouds. Additionally, we will use our knowledge and techniques to create three-dimensionality in the clouds by representing natural light and depth of field.
To achieve these things, we will paint our clouds larger at the top of the paper and smaller as you move down the paper, to make the sky look like it goes on for miles and miles.
We will also paint with darker colors on the tops of the clouds and lighter colors on the bottoms of the clouds to make it appear like natural light during a sunset or sunrise.
And we will also layer the color to display the vibrancy of the visible spectrum during the moments leading to twilight.
