That looks like a good way to do background mountains. If I were a more accomplished painter I'd give it a try. Nice work.

Thank you! That was a lovely little, straight forward demo. I LOVE granulation and Ultramarine is one of my favourites for that reason, and in the cloud parts of the painting it looks amazing but I think I would use a non-granulating blue for the sky for a bit more intensity. I live in Australia so the skies are pretty damn intense 😆. Going down to the studio right now to try this method out but am going to use Ultramarine and Burnt Sienna (also my staple for good greys) but then the Cerulean for the blue. Anyhoo, thanks again. I loved this easy demo. All the best from Australia! 😎

Beautiful! I wonder how many times I'd turn it into mud before I got one good one? lol

That’s outstanding! I struggle with skies and this looks like a brilliant way to make them interesting. I own a spray bottle but it’s the fine mist type, I can’t see the type you are using anywhere. I guess one with an adjustable nozzle might give heavier droplets? 🤔 Thanks for sharing and posting this.

I really enjoyed watching your technique! I need to get braver and use the spray bottle. I like how you use droplets instead of misting. I'm going to steal your idea! Hope that's ok!
