Now, we can put the sky in with a one-inch brush, but a lot of people don't have those so I'm going to do it the old fashion way. We're going to put cobalt blue and we're going to put just a touch of rose in it to give it a purple tone. Maybe a little too much rose, there we go. Just wanted a little purple, there we go. What I'm going to do is put basically an inch of cobalt bluish-purple right at the top, here. Cover the area pretty well, add some more if necessary. Then, add some water to it, break that bottom edge. Slide the brush back and forth. Then, what we're going to do is we're going to create some cloud structure by pressing in, and this has to be done pretty quickly, just about five to ten seconds after you put the color down. You just go into the bottom one inch. Try to make it cloud like.
