The reason your clouds look awkward is because you think of clouds as physical objects. Let's look at some ways to fix that and have you painting great clouds today!
I love to paint clouds and watch them morph and shift all the time. It's fascinating how the mood can shift dramatically with the colors and the shapes of clouds. This loose and layered style of painting is perfect for anyone wanting to use acrylic paint in a more watercoloresque style or make your acrylic painting look more like it was painted with oil colors.

Some of the techniques I will talk about in this video are negative painting techniques, layering techniques, soft and hard edges and transitions.the use of cool and warm colors and finally how to create depth using colors and composition.

Another thing I want to show you is how easy it is to change things and paint over parts of the painting that you aren't happy with. I have filmed everthing in real time so that you can look over my shoulder and see everything that goes on and the decision making that happens along the way.

Grab your paints and let me show you how to paint beautiful loose clouds in acrylics.
