  • In his usual step by step approach (while doing an oil sketch on paper) Dutch painter Janhendrik Dolsma shows how he paints a layered sky. For each phase of the process, he runs a ticker, containing the names and brands of the colors used.
    The following topics are covered:
    1. The color of the sky
    2. Painting Cirrus clouds using Transparent White
    3. Painting backlit clouds
    4. Painting sparkles on the water
    Dolsma (1950) is an expert painter of clouds, beaches, dunes and of course the ocean. On his UA-cam channel he shares a lifetime of painting experience in short tutorial videos with an emphasis on painting clouds. His full length tutorials (over 60 minutes) have found their way to buyers all over the world. Full tutorials can be found here: www.paintingsk...
    Dolsma participated in exhibitions in the Netherlands, Germany, the UK, Taiwan, Spain, Belgium and the USA.

    Love your work Janhendrik . Although I’m a pastel artist like you I love to paint realistically. Most pastel artist seem to like to put a lot of colour in their work. And that’s rightly so . But watching you paint relates to me so much. Thank you I will look forward to all of your upcoming videos.

    Fabulous skies! I'm working oil on canvas - frustrating how long it takes to dry between sessions... I'm using linseed oil - do you just set it aside and wait? Wish I could see your palette, you're using a lot of paint, and letting it dry between sessions. Please say more! ❤

      I'm using a fast drying medium, Liquin Light Gel (Winsor & Newton). It allows me to resume working on the same painting the next day. Wrote an article about it on my blog: paintingcloudskies.blogspot.com/2016/02/the-fat-over-lean-rule.html. Hope this helps!

    How much time do you usually spend on a painting?

      That depends. Size is a determining factor. On this painting On this one I worked just over a week. But a really large painting can take up to 4 to 6 weeks.
