Paint 4 Different Watercolour NIGHT Skies, Simple Landscape Watercolor Sky Practice Demo Tutorial

For this beginner-friendly sky practice, I've divided my paper into 4 with masking tape and paint 4 different night skies. I use a bit of masking fluid in 2 of them to preserve the white paper, and a bit of salt for effects in one.
I'm using a limited palette of Indigo, prussian blue, sepia and paynes grey, and I use a paper towel wrapped round a penny to lift out the moon in 2 of them.
I'm using Saunders Waterford cold pressed 140lb/300g weight paper, and various brushes as mentioned in the video, but use what whichever brushes you are happiest with.

Those are great...I love the coin/moon trick...

This is just what I needed. I am trying to paint bigger as my family want a big painting and I struggle. This would help me learn and potentially something for a wall. Moon is genius
