GLAZING

Fast-forward a couple of weeks and I’ve decided I need a gentler segue from the horizon to the sky, which I accomplish with strategically set clouds. In an effort to keeping the elements unified I’m laying in a glaze of transparent yellow oxide over the entire sky, I will paint the clouds into this color while it is wet. The yellow oxide is going to add a warm tone and aid in unifying the sky as a whole. From the horizon line down I’m glazing a very dark mixture of alizarin crimson, ultramarine blue and phthalo green.
