So this cloud effect that I was after didn't work out so well in this instance. I was just using watercolour. Maybe I should have added some gouache, or used a blue that contains some white in it?But really, composition and values were off, so there wasn't much I could do to redeem it. I do like the mountain effect yellow on pale yellow that I achieved with a fine brush, though. Maybe if I did it all in yellow, just increasing the value as I get closer and closer?
Other attempts, with watercolour paper. Didn't wait for it to dry enough and ended up with a mess. The cold and damp weather is definitely not helping! But, really, it's a matter of patience, or maybe I should be using a hair dryer!
