Creating the sky using ‘Wet on Wet’ technique

Step 1: Choose your colour

Choose a colour for your sky from the ones you prepared. It needn't be a typical sky colour

Step 3: Create your sky

Add some splodges of paint to get some soft edged areas, as shown

Tip:

You don’t necessarily need to add lots of colour at this stage, as the sky can look more effective if left lighter than the rest of the painting.  Also, areas of the paper left white work well as clouds.
