Cloud dancer

Digital watercolor and pencil portrait of a woman dancing outside at sunset. The figure, trees, and house in the background are all in silhouette against the pink, purple, and blue clouds.

I’ll say this about cloudscapes, they’re a million times easier to draw than portraits. I pretty much puked up some color on the canvas in five minutes and smudged it all together in another five and presto chango… one photo-realistic sky for your viewing pleasure.

I can see why they’re a popular subject for Paper creators.
