Today I just couldn't get into working on a painting so I decided to work on small pieces of paper that I had already cut to 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" for ACEO.
Grey Sky A
On one painting only French ultramarine blue with a hint of burnt sienna just to grey the colour slightly was used leaving areas of white for the clouds.
Grey Sky B
Using mixtures of French ultramarine blue and burnt sienna I painted in skies and clouds. I added a little raw sienna and put in a few tree shapes into the bottom of one painting.
Grey Sky C
Some of the backgrounds had very little cloud and lighter and darker mixtures of the two colours were used to give different tones
to the skies.
Grey Sky D
A couple of the paintings I did vertically using different washes of the blue
colour and painting it in with streaks of a grey mix.
Grey Sky E
I will posts these backgrounds sky paintings as I complete them at a later date.
If you would like more information about ACEO please go to my post on 11 March
2010.
Thank you for coming to look at my artwork and I hope you will return often.
