June Exclusive: Moody Thunder & Lightning Skies (Patreon)

Hey everyone!

I am so excited to share my latest piece with you all this morning. There is nothing quite like the drama of a stormy sky, and in this new tutorial, I’m breaking down exactly how to capture these moody thunder and lightning skies.

I’ve put together a full voiceover walkthrough where we’ll dive into:

Creating soft, blended atmospheric clouds using a moody purple palette.

Building deep values and contrast to make the storm feel alive.

Preserving and lifting those crisp, sharp lightning bolts against the dark clouds.

Grab your brushes, mix up your favorite deep purples and grays, and let’s paint this storm together! I can't wait to see your versions in the community gallery.

Happy Painting,

Kellie
