Nice work .Not so easy to get fluffiy clouds. I tried a lot with titanium white, thick and thin colors and with liquid white in addition.👍🏼🇩🇪

Very nice Bob.

Really nice work! Clouds look great!

This is very good.

Thank you all. I hope you are starting to see some improvement. A little less "cartoonish" and more realism?

Your improvement is showing.

Thanks!!! I feel it’s getting better but we’re our own worst critics. It’s good to hear from others otherwise you might never know.

Your reflections here are nice!

Clouds have been my “dark cloud” since the beginning of my painting journey. I discovered that you need just a very very thin layer of liquid white. It helps tremendously to control your paint for your clouds.

Is there a way to tell me more about this? Where/how to put the very very thin layer of liquid white?

RT one way is to scrape the canvas after you apply the white. Works well for me.
