We will paint 2 or 3 versions of sky in this workshop. A sunset creating back lighting, a stormy sky for a moody, brooding sky and if there is time a sunny day blue sky with clouds. Keeping the foreground simple as the focus is on the sky. The workshop includes being able to combine images taking the inspiration of a sky from one photo into a different landscape of another photo.
