Virginia Morning Sky


Good Morning friends...it's 7am and I just came in from snapping a few morning photos of the sunrise and the beautiful moon....enjoy!
I wish I could duplicate the softness of these colors with my paints...it is never quite right. Gretel..maybe you can help?

I love this of my moon with the cool jet streams cutting it in half.

This was the sky last night as the sun was setting...could my sky have been any bluer??

I wish you all a glorious Thursday...go out and do something wonderful!
Until next time...be kind and stay creative. Remember, Friday is Pieday..so be sure to come back.

Ooh lovely skies Janet! I am not an expert on landscape painting from real life,and sunrises/sunsets are the most difficult things to replicate without making them look overdone or corny. I think you'd have to use lots of loose washes and resist putting in tons of colour. But don't take my word for it! :)
