Which of these tips did you find most helpful? Want help with clouds? Try this: Watercolor Sky with Clouds (2 EASY ways!) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gOB2rKVzp7HSkWQ.html

This video is so helpful! Skies can be challenging with the blue & yellow going green. As a beginner like how you said, If try to use “damp, clean brush” to lessen line between sky & mountain (add in to much water) so go all the way down page with light wash & then layer until can learn that swipe some off for next mountain.

A free comment because I've been binge watching you for days

Very helpful and perfect timing. I’m painting a sky a day for World Watercolor Month.

Yes ! Payne's Grey can trip me up at the edges, and I love colorful skies. As always, helpful.

love the new hair cut Michele (well new to me if I missed it when it was new)

Thank you for those tips. Don’t know why I had never really thought about layering in association with watercolour painting.

Thank you. All of my watercolour education has come from you. Easy to understand and then do.

As, I’m having trouble procuring a satisfactory sky your tips are really useful! I’ve experienced the beading effect on cheaper sketch paper too! The colour swatch at end also very useful! Thanks

Your tips are always so helpful Michele. Thx very much. 🥰

Definitely a great video of sky tips. I am always forgetting about #3, especially when using the Payne’s Grey. Thanks for sharing this wonderful informational video with us.

In Australia green clouds are a worrying sight as they indicate hail in the clouds and a possible hail storm on the way.

Thank you ❤️

thank you!

Great tips Michele, especially the paynes grey, thank you😊

Excellent video!

Very informative,thanks.

You can use yellow in a sky without making green by using a PBr7 yellow such as raw sienna. Technically it is a brown and won’t tend to make green if it comes into contact with blue.

Love your color mixing tips!

Great instruction; VERY helpful!

Thank You for mentioning weather and humidity! It plays such a big role in how the watercolor paint plays on the paper. Where I used to live was dry and I would struggle to keep the paper and paint wet long enough to get the paint from the palette to the paper and have anything but hard edges. Once I made the connection I realized I wasn't a bad Painter, I just needed to either wait for the right conditions or create the conditions that gave me good results. Weather with 45% or higher humidity, or get a humidifier! (Here in the southern US we have air conditioning and that sucks the moisture right out of the air!)🤷‍♀️

So much great information, beautifully explained. Excellent reminder of color bias in mixing. I have heard some say using a wee bit of Naples Yellow or Raw Sienna can help prevent the green, also. The Naples you addressed in one of your other color videos on unusual colors one should be using.

Thank you

Found this vidio very helpfull, keep the coming.

As always your tips are so helpful and on point!!

Hi Michelle. Great video as usual lots of infomation and tips like a beginner like. If it's possible may I ask question. Does the board need to be totally flat to stop coulour run. Reason for his is I have had major surgery to repair my neck and need to wear the surgical halo device. I cannot move my head but hsve to use my eyes to look up down etc. Not head. Any help would be great. Thanks Adrian

Layering the sky! So helpful 😀

This is so useful Michele. Thank you

Actually the clouds above island will reflect the green of the island. Where the clouds over the water reflect the blue. This is how Islands were discovered by explorers.

Would like to paint skies in different colours and different types of clouds

why does raw sienna and indian yellow work with skies? of course even with these it is all about not mixing too much on the paper. just 'touching' on the edges. but these usually work. of course with a touch of magenta as well. but that was mentioned in the video. does indian yellow have a touch of bluish red perhaps?

On the first tip, guilty as charged. When I'm pressed for time, I use a hair dryer.
