The Clouds. Part Two
Continuation of the cloud course. Using the skills and techniques from the first part, we will learn a new technique for creating complex realistic clouds. This time the task is to control as much as possible what we are doing. The described technique is well suited to watercolor artworks, where a lot of attention should be paid to the sky and clouds and they perform the main emotional work.
But the most interesting is minor tricks and tips from the master.
