I wanted to get in one more submission for the
Virtual Paintout in Jersey this month and since it is an island, I wanted to do one that showed at least a little of the ocean. I was really attracted to this dramatic sky. I found it and went to the studio to paint it but it disappeared from my computer and it was hard to find again. I went all of the way around the island thinking that it would be really easy to find this sky but with Google you can have sunny skies, travel 20 feet and have a sky like this. Crazy! Anyway, I finally found it and this time I sent the link to my e-mail so I wouldn't lose it again.
I thought that using pastels would be the best way to capture the look that I wanted with the sky. I love how dark and ominous the sky is on the left and the blue sky peeking through on the right. We don't often get dramatics skies like this here so it's fun to find it in Google to paint.
