How to Paint Realistic Skies and Sunlight

I share my process on how I add light and glow to this beautiful sunrise sky I'm working on in my latest oil painting. The techniques and methods could be applied to acrylics as well. I walk you through the steps I took from start to finish and explain how I painted and approached each area of the sky.

You keep going from strength to strength I have been watching you paint and develop as an artist for many years from 'paint like a pro' you are a master now. Thank you for the inspiration art is a solo journey that can be isolating and watching you has made me feel inspired to keep reaching for the elusive goal. Much gratitude💗

I always wondered how to blend Yellow/oranges into blues without making green. Thank you so much for teaching this technique! Love all of your videos!

Wonderful! Thank you for showing us. Our sky was emerald green the other day and the hills were orange from the sunset. Craziest color I ever seen.

Just got one word for this painting: stunning ❤

[bobmatthews]

the concept of separating the skies into sections, just clicked. I am tackling a painting, now, with a bright sun and was really stressing over the blending. thanks for the insight on blending and stretching the layers out.
