Winter Skyscape, Roseberry Topping

Nice painting of a well known local landscape in the North East of England.

Very engaging. The meandering journey to the high point and the intriguing sky/land border give this scene great drama.

Thanks for your comments.

Lovely sky! And I remember camping there a long time ago.

Once again, your sky is magical. I'm fascinated how you've achieved that wash, with the soft cloud effect and the slight granulation around the horizon.

Thanks for the further comments. The sky effects result from a sequence of an initial wash, followed by the partial removal of the wash via clean water. This process was also instrumental in achieving the pale, watery sun, which is partially obscured by the high clouds.
