STEP 8: Develop the Sky Behind

Focus on developing the sky first just as you did with the underpainting. Work on the side of your pastel with the larger shapes, and for now, stay away from developing the edges where cloud meets sky. Focus on getting the value and color of the transition established. Pick out the smaller cloud holes and include them in the development of the color transition. When the blue starts to get too blue, scumble on a bit of the warm purple to neutralize the blue.

STEP 9: Work Up the Clouds

Still working on the side of your pastel, work on developing the clouds. Use the warm and cool grays, warm purple and blue-gray in the light value for the upperside of the clouds and in midvalues for the shadowed undersides. Break down the cloud forms into smaller shapes and use the technique of give and take to render them.

No area is finished yet and don’t start to address the transition zone where cloud and sky meet.
