Cloud Portrait


I'm often blown away by the beauty of clouds in Colorado. I'm not sure that they are any more spectacular here than anywhere else. The difference may just be that you can see them better on the prairie. There's nothing blocking your view. There are many colors in a cloud, both warm and cool color. I have done large paintings of clouds in pastel. I recently tried doing a large painting of clouds in oil. It was a disaster. So I'm doing some small studies before attempting that again. This is a 5 x 7 painting of a cloud that seemed to be spilling over its edge into the sky. This unframed painting is available for $60 in my Etsy shop. Click here to purchase.
