well as we can see it is quiet on the forum . maybe we could have few single paintings of shadowy Skys just to see your ideas ,lets see what you come up with ,try some opposites like a. warm yellow cloud in a blue crimson mix sky , notice how some artists use opposites ,,
what about we try unusual colours in sky ,l we have had some colourful evening sky's lately

Excellent idea Alan O. This is a small plein air oil that I painted for the July Summer sky challenge. I continued to paint a sky each day for a month, although I didn't post all of them.
This image is on the Letters' page of the current edition of LP, relating to 'Paint a sky a day'. It was great fun to do and a useful exercise.

I love Claude Monet, and his opposites are in a lot of todays painters ,,may be unconciously added ,,Ron Ranson added the crimson next to the lemon in his Skys , though I don't take to Monet,s viridian greens do you? , mind you he certainly knew how to use it against his warm orange , last nights sky was full of yellowy reds and blue crimsons beautiful ....

it is done with hake brush wet in wet dead easy and con job. I can get away with rubbish any time I.ll se the LYA AlanWhat to yo mean by 'a con job and why say you can get away with rubbish any time' Bit of an arrogant comment from such an eminent artist, Alan O Hake brushes have been around for many decades, Chinese masters and artists have used them to great effect. Personally I think it takes great skill to use a hake brush, of any size, to produce a picture of limited marks.
