Very nice technique. Most sky painting videos seem to start with the blue and then form the cloud shadow last. You started with the shadow and yellow color first and then out of the blue part at the last. I like this style a lot.
You do a great video and are a terrific teacher. You explain everything you are doing so simply, yet so well! Of course, we beginners can only but wish and hope to emulate the quality of your work. Nevertheless, thank you so much!
Hi Deborah - it always does look so easy, doesn't it? Susan writes: "The paper I prefer is Arches 140 lb cold-pressed and the paints I use are Winsor & Newton artist's watercolors in tubes." If you're in the DC area, hope you'll come to a class!
hmmm. I've been watching a lot of cloud videos lately and... this particular method resonates the most with me! I mean, I learned a lot from all the videos but this one feels like... yessss this cloud is mine. :P I realize it's also Susan's but we're just gonna have to share. :P Thank you very much!

If you have a good base of watercolor painting and you need extra help, this is a great video. I did get all the color names you used except the blue. Was it ultramarine?
OK, it's deceptively simple but very difficult for a beginner. I just tried it twice. Both were epic fails. I don't know what I am doing wrong.... so frustrating. One of my issues is I am probably mixing the wrong intensity of paint and maybe wrong hues. The purple she drops into the yellow is muted on her painting. Mine looked too dark like a wound. I used Aliz crimson and french ultramarine for the cloud shadows, naples yellow as the warm yellow and cobalt for the sky, but it looks like a hot mess.
+lisarnful maybe don't try to copy her exactly, do what feels best for you, not all clouds are yellow and purple, heck why not make a green cloud, get crazy
Are you using a decent quality paper? Paper quality makes a huge difference when doing wet-in-wet work. You might try splurging for a pad of Arches cold-press so you can see the difference (and yeah - it's expensive :)
ohh, you tried TWICE?! Holy smokes! >you have to try hundreds, if not thousands of times before you are anywhere near even half good. Twice... jesus christ.
It’s a beautiful painting. I have an unresolved question. By watching the video, you apply the “warm yellow”, then some kind of blue on the wet paper. How come it doesn’t turn green? I just failed trying to blend it in, to my sadness it turned green, no skies are green. Please help me! Thanks in advance.
you make this look so easy but its not! for me anyway...lol...can u tell me what brand and weight watercolor paper this is? and what brand of watercolor paints? I am hoping that is my problem- if so maybe I can try again..thanks so much...your painting is stunning!
Hi, I'm trying to use a watercolor sky for a copic marker figure on a 3-ply Bristol board (100 lb). Do you believe this meld of mediums would work and if so what is the best mix for cloud color? You don't mention which colors you're mixing in this vid.
How will you know until you try. Give it a shot, do some drawing every day. Really look and draw what you see, not what you think it should look like. One of the best books to get you started is Drawing on The right side of the Brain. You can find it online somewhere for free and download it. I know you can do it if you really want to, you can do anything you want as long as you want it bad enough and practice, practice, practice.

WOW! This is so easy to do yet it looks sooo professional! Amazing! Thank you so much for this video!

I love your “loose-style” of painting & blending colors! Your style is one that I’d like to add to my “Arsenal!” Subscribing! Thanks!
Brilliant demonstration! Thank you!
Nice work, and thanks for sharing your talent, hopefully be able to recreate some of the techniques when I am painting next week.
Hi Tara, Susan says she uses the original John Pike palette and highly recommends it. Not sure if it's available in the UK, but I hope that helps!
The best cloud tutorial, I can never make them right before
One of the best surface I have used is Ampersand claybord. The bring the look of the painting out. You have done nicely on that.
Wow! You make it look so simple.
I learned a lot from this! :)
You do a great video and are a terrific teacher. You explain everything you are doing so simply, yet so well! Of course, we beginners can only but wish and hope to emulate the quality of your work. Nevertheless, thank you so much!

If you have a good base of watercolor painting and you need extra help, this is a great video. I did get all the color names you used except the blue. Was it ultramarine?

Keep trying! You'll get there! Don't listen to pretentious haters. :)

try to use a little bit more water

so helpful
I tend to agree with the others, it looks easy, but it is difficult to get it right!
thanks for the demo anyway.
What was the dark colour under the cloud,you never said paynes grey???
¡De nada!
AMAAZIIING!!! :D :D
It would be helpful to know colors and brushes used described in the notes not just web site and such.
wtf is this michelangelo level stuff omg😭very beautiful👌👌
can i buy one
I can't really tell, but how big is the paper?
It is available because I have one. Jacksons art suppliers.
You probably got one now.
water magic
Is this hot pressed paper? My colors are bleeding while trying wet in wet for the clouds

I have a limited budget, are cheap brushes adequate for these projects, some of them cost £10 each
amazing but I doubt I can draw like that

How to use watercolour please
You can make vedio
I really want to paint, but it's not coming to me!
Your website is asking me to downgrade my Adobe flash player. I am on version 10. I not this video was published on the 17th May 2012.
I wish you are my teacher
You should've stated "PREVIEW"
Pretty much ok
Omar Ismail
wtf😦 how
I like you😘
I did my first attempt (take note that I'm 11) and it turned out not too good but not too bad
Idk what I painted...maybe its wrong to start my watercolor journey with the moon and then the clouds
it is very very difficult. I did it and it was a disaster. I think the video is a bit too fast....
lol same
