Another Attempt to Paint Golden Clouds

Today I practiced painting clouds again. My inspiration is VIctor Staris’ How to Paint Clouds tutorial on Youtube. It’s designed for beginners like me. I’ll practice painting clouds again tomorrow.

I painted this picture with Clip Studio Paint rather than Photoshop or Painter. I’m just more comfortable with CSP than with the others. I used Victor’s Photoshop brushes again — they’ve got a good feel to them.

Rebelle 4 was released today and I dove in to test the new oil painting tools. I soon realized that painting with digital paint that reacts like physical paint is really weird — it’s oil painting. It’s going to take a lot of practice before I’m confident with Rebelle. My plan is to finish up my Adventures of Jimmy Jay picture book series with Clip Studio Paint so I can keep the same style for the next four books.

TMy copy of Rocky, Vol. 2, Strictly Business by Martin Kellerman arrived today. It’s going to be fun reading it before I go to sleep. Rocky is a foul-mouthed, down and out dog who draws a comic strip. It’s just my style.
