This is taken out of the book ‚The Magic of Oil Painting III‘ by Bill Alexander.
It is called red sky but mine turned out very purple 😄.
However it is a very nice episode to paint. Not very difficult but an eye catcher. Of course nothing for purists who want to have natural colors.
Myself I turn more and more to odd color schemes which I find much better. But this is my taste.

Thank you Jos. I didn’t find a tutorial yet but Alexander art are posting new ones from time to time. Maybe this one too.
Super as always Tom Hammer 👍🏼😎
Many thanks Dirk, glad you like it!
The purple clouds work very well even if it wasn't the expected outcome. Beautiful Tom! Very soothing!
Thank you Nancy, it does not really disturb me that the sky is a bit purple here. It just sounds maybe strange that the episode is called red sky, but overall I am happy with it :)
The color scheme is excellent! Nice job!
Really pretty! Love all your details!
Many thanks Tomi, the color scheme was a kind of a happy accident ;)
Many thanks Sandy!
The intense richness in that sky is lovely Tom 👍
Thank you Nivek!
I love it!
Beautiful details and I love the purple sky!
Many thanks Cold!
Thank you Brian. I also like the purple!
An eye catcher for sure. Nice Tom.
Thank you Tony!
