Painting Skies in Watercolour - When Sky Meets Land

In this video, I show you how to paint successful skies in watercolour, with a focus on what happens when sky meets land. Understanding the relationships between these two landscape elements is important and I show you some simple exercises that will help you to understand this, especially how to avoid clumsy and awkward transitions at the horizon by managing your edges when you combine different washes.
