Did you say how big the painting is? I will assume it was a Bogart remark! :)

I still like the clouds. Did you say how big the painting is?

Thank you, Jo. Just the sky view makes me feel like I am floating in space, but I kinda like it that way. It may have just been a Bogart computer, an antiquated reference to your gender, right?

Was that a hint? How do computers know??? Anyway, I like the clouds as they are with no land. Just beautiful. Ack…. my security word was “broad”. Was that a hint? How do computers know???

I took my reference photo for this in Buda on Saturday. Amazing clouds! We have trees, which I love, but it means I can't see the sunrises or sunsets unless I drive somewhere. It's a trade-off...

I'll check it out today in a good light, as I worked to get good darks especially in that corner. My gray-teal pastels just didn't go dark enough, so I put a dark blue Unison underneath that and went over it again. There are never quite enough colors - guess I'll just have to buy more pastels!!

You can't improve on nature. About the only thing I would change is to brighten up the edge or darken the clouds a bit to emphasis the contrast. But that might just be my monitor...
