I like your DO vs. DON'T concept... makes it easier to avoid mistakes. Thank you for your efforts! Do you know how to paint other cloud types too.. like wispy clouds.... storm clouds.... cirrus clouds or cominbinations?
I've watched 32 different artists tell me how to do a sky their way. Everyone had a different method, some suggested that unless I bought their specialty brushes, I'd never be able to paint like them. And in one video, a guy plopped down 7 different colors I think he used 5, for what, I haven't a clue. So being one who has followed the KISS principle pretty close, I'm sticking with John.
This is great tutorial on how to paint clouds. Even after watching other artists teach their way of painting clouds, I have come back to this video over and over again. They are very realistic. This is a good foundation from which to add rain or a rainbow. Thank you for the tutorial!
Yours is the best cumulus clouds tutorial I’ve ever seen. Thank you for taking the time to explain YOUR WAY & to demonstrate. J.M.Lisondra, you are an awesome artist & teacher. ❤️😁
At first I was intimidated to try to paint clouds but your Instructional Lesson took all the stress out! This adventure became fun and to my surprise my clouds are stunning. Actually I look at CLOUDS much differently now! WOW! Thanks so much!
As on your DO AND DON'T video about how to paint trees, I was taught to paint my clods the DON'T way you show on this video. I have found out how all that is why my paintings have always turned out to look so cartoonish. Was trying to figure out why that was so and now I know !!! TY so much for sharing your knowledge and techniques with us .
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and talent... I love painting ever since I was a child did not.have the opporrunity to acquire skills. I am 43y.o. now but I am yet startnto paint.. Hope it's not too late. And your tutorials are my guide. I want to thank you because I am learning so much because your tutorials are very clear and easy to understand. God bless!
Its only a real genuine teacher who tells us what not to do also ... you are such a great teacher...so glad I found you . Thank you very much.. stay blessed ever :)
Perfect clouds! Now I know where I have been going wrong. Another turn to video when I am doing my skies. Thank you very much, John. A great tutorial. xx
Thank you. So many videos say beginners but they don't explain how they are holding the brush or the stroke pressure or highlighting. These are the most important things to learn or everything looks flat on the canvas. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for you efforts. This is the best way of teaching dos and don'ts. I think almost all of us do it like the first one and wonder why they don't look like clouds,😃
Sir... You are an super duper exquisite artist and other artist doesn't even explain each and every step in a detailed manner... Thanks a ton sir.. we all are grateful that we get to learn so many things from you. Would you like to tell us that from how many years have you given to bring this type of perfection , how many times have you practised, how have you kept yourself motivated constantly and your struggle days?
Many many thanks... I really appreciate it... I've been painting for 20 years now... and i started not so good but it keeps me inspired because i found joy whenever i paint. so it didn't bother me even my works were bad before.. i keep practicing everyday until i see improvements...
I've been watching the techniques to paint a cloud for a last few days and ended up seeing new types of brushes. Here I've got the clouds with sumple brushes that are available to me. Thank you ☺☺. Love from India.
Wow... Thanks for making this video (years ago, but I just found it😅) I make my clouds the NO way. I don't like them and now I know why! and I will stop doing that 🤣😂 Love your vids. Thanks for sharing your talent and knowledge
I really appreciate how you do the do's and don'ts. It shows me where I'm erring in basic techniques now I can correct them. I'm working on selling my paintings so im thankful that with your tutorials I can offer a more professional look to my paintings. I don't want to be known as an amateur seller
Thank you so much. I've been trying to learn clouds for over two years watching utube and then I found your video. Lost my sweet husband October 2019 he ask me to try painting but i never had time.. after he passed i remembered our conversation and am doing pretty good.. Going to try again using your info. They are beautiful.
I just scrubbed my canvas with water and alcohol and a brush than wiped it with a wet rag to remove paint since I messed up badly. I have a huge weight lifted off me as I can restart. I will use this technique thank you.
altho im late here but im grateful YT recommended me thia vid. I hv watched diff artists on paintings clouds, while i undestand some of it, i still don't understand what i was doing n my clouds looked like the "Don't" 😅. Now I finally understand how to paint clouds n where I did wrong. L like the fact tht you pointed out to decide where to place the shadows n the highlights, it makes painting the clouds much more easier. I wish i had found your vid earlier !
That’s just brilliant I’m going to have ago of this that’s for sure,, I’ve tried clouds before but I always made. A mess of of them, many thanks for putting the video up Paul Walsh .ireland
Excellent tutorial on clouds John. I always think I can do it and then they turn out strange looking. Now that I've been able to see them painted correctly right before my eyes, perhaps I'll paint more realistic looking clouds.....thanks to YOU !!! I appreciate that you have shared your knowledge. Thank you so very much for your generosity. You are a kind soul.
Very good work so realistic looking I have watched a couple tutorials on clouds before and then I go try them and still fail. I have a problem with over working the area. Ur tutorial seems very understandable and I can't wait to try.... I see now where my mistakes are when painting them... Thanks for the helpful pointers
I’ve wanted to know how to paint this kind of cloud for ages. I started the wrong way round, painting the highlights first then trying to put in the shadows. Thank you so much for saving my sanity. It’s been driving me crazy ha ha.
Very serene watching you paint these. I started dosing off in a good way. Not from boredom. As so I started to see King Kong at 10:50. BTW great tutorial. Very informative!
Those second clouds were outrageously beautiful!
I almost smacked the screen when I saw that ant. Little fella is very curious.
😂
Whatever it was gave me the heebie-jeebies 🤣🪳
😂🤣😁😙😗😉
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I was like wth????
I like your DO vs. DON'T concept... makes it easier to avoid mistakes. Thank you for your efforts! Do you know how to paint other cloud types too.. like wispy clouds.... storm clouds.... cirrus clouds or cominbinations?
thank you.. Yes I will try also something like that in the future.. thanks for suggesting..
I am inspired by your tutorial, and tried to complete things needed to start in a canvass.
Wait... there r other types of clouds?
@@blahblah3881 yes, about 6 types or more :) it depends on the height they are at in the atmosphere
@@blahblah3881 LMAO even I didn't knew that there are other types of clouds earlier 😳

sAME HERE
My grey is bleeding through when I put the white highlight on. What am I doing wrong?
@@karengouthro705 you need to let that layer of grey dry before going in with the white highlight. It will make a huge difference
Even your "don't" clouds are better than mine 😭
Same
Haha same
I will start a channel on “don’t” with real exemples and for the “do’s” I will just recommend an other channel 😂
Hahaha, mine is same as the don't
Right! 😆
I watched this accidentally, but I don't regret it. Thank you for the tutorial.
This is great tutorial on how to paint clouds. Even after watching other artists teach their way of painting clouds, I have come back to this video over and over again. They are very realistic. This is a good foundation from which to add rain or a rainbow. Thank you for the tutorial!
Glad it was helpful! thank you :)
I'm currently working on a very important artwork which involves clouds but I don't know how to do them. Now I have an idea, thank you so much!!! 👊👊👊
