Good one Phil, you do a great job explaining process and reasons for doing things in a painting and do a quick color sketch to bring it all together at the end, like in this one. I wish we had more time to study the study you do though, 2 seconds is not enough time to see anything, I suppose we can pause it, but then you could also go over the sketch and explain how you applied the lesson you just taught in the front part of the video. Just a suggestion. And, although the Payne and Dixon clouds were pretty nice examples, I am bitterly disappointed that you do not show any William Wendt cloud paintings. As you know, and have said on occasion, Wendt was a master at making them look "solid", and not wimpy or wispy. In fact, his painted clouds "hang in the air in exactly the same way that bricks don't", is the description that "They" (art historians?) use to describe them!! LOL ;D

Wendt would have been a good example.

Great lesson Phil! You mentioned the the shadow of the cloud should not be darker than the sky, but as the sun gets lower in the sky, I have noticed that the clouds can be dark silhouettes. Is that just when the clouds are back-lit during a sunset? I noticed that your examples were during daylight. Do the rules change during sunsets and golden hour?

@ronschlorff7089 2 месяца назад

Probably yes, but the only "rule" I have heard of for the "golden hour" is that when the mountains turn pink, down here in southern Arizona, it's usually time to drink. LOL ;D

@@ronschlorff7089 Sounds like a good rule to me 😄.

@@ronschlorff7089 I just looked up sunset images (photos) and some have very dark clouds against a light sky, but a lot don't as well. So I guess it is condition dependent.

@ronschlorff7089 2 месяца назад

@@pjjmsn that is true, everything is "condition dependent" in painting, that's a real rule, especially for plein air work. For example, a horde of mosquitos attacking you while you are painting can make you do some wonderful "loose "paintings, .....get it? ;D LOL

@@ronschlorff7089 I've never done plein air. I am in the beginning stages. I have only been able to produce 4 landscape paintings that I am quite happy with, so far. And they all took a long time to finish. I have done a lot of abstract work in the past as well as black and white landscape photography, which I have come to discover did not prepare me very well for landscape painting, LOL. As Phil says, it takes a while to learn how to see. I never practiced seeing the details of landscapes as the camera did that work for me. All I had to do was the composing and processing.
