CLOUD NINE: Painting Big, Beautiful Clouds

Get ready to fall in love with the sky! In this immersive acrylic workshop, we’ll chase the magic of big, bold, beautiful clouds drifting across clear blue skies. From soft and wispy to towering and fluffy, you’ll learn how to paint clouds that breathe—full of light, form, and movement.

We’ll dive into techniques for blending, layering, and shaping clouds so they feel light as air and full of life. Whether you're after photo-realism or a dreamy, expressive look, this class will help you bring skies to life and give your landscapes that “wow” factor.

Perfect for painters who love drama and quiet beauty of a summer sky.
