Stormy Clouds

.

We will be working "Wet into Wet" again, so your watercolor paper will need to be stretched. 

Check out my previous lesson on "Stretching watercolor paper" for more information! 

Reference photo: dark stormy clouds 

Materials required are:-

Kitchen paper towel 
Blotting paper

Mix up three washes.
Top left : Raw Sienna
Middle left : Cobalt Blue/ touch of Light Red
Bottom left : Payne's grey

First, apply a wash of Raw Sienna over the whole paper.
Using Payne's Grey, start painting in the dark areas of the storm clouds.
