Painting the Sky

The sky is pure atmosphere and a vital part of landscape painting. In her two-part workshop, Kathleen demonstrates the techniques she uses to capture the look and feel of the sky in paintings.

Painting the Sky

The sky is a crucial element in landscape painting. Painters use edges and transitions to create various weather phenomena.

Session 1: Kathleen demonstrates the use of colored grounds and explores how different surfaces influence the look and feel of the sky in a painting.

Session 2:
Kathleen makes a second pass over the colored grounds she prepared in the first session. A week of drying time allows for the building of form using the oiling-out technique. She then demonstrates how the careful use of edges and transitions can help you create the exceptionally subtle forms of clouds. 

Her previous class, Edges and Transitions, introduces the subject of edges and transitions.
