I added a very tiny bit of cad orange to my white to try to complement the blue gray of the clouds, but i think it still needs more 'something'. Keep me posted if you think of the painter who did the dvd - I would really like to know how to achieve a better effect.Jan F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07034900859550489927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714509141270909885.post-42121090781691736452015-06-25T22:25:34.345-05:002015-06-25T22:25:34.345-05:00I forgot to add that I was checking out some paint...I forgot to add that I was checking out some painter's web page and noticed he had an instructional dvd on how to paint looking into the sun. Might be interesting. If only I could remember the painter's name.

I do wonder if a few more intense highlights in the sky would help it, but that might be risky. I've been looking at a lot of Peter Wileman paintings lately. He's a painter from England who paints sunset skies quite well, and usually with bright highlights.Tom Gilberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07904525354461577807noreply@blogger.com
