I don't think I've ever painted just a sky before. It was a peaceful one to do. The pinks in the clouds are primarily the background color glowing through. I tried to retain that and not cover up too much of it.
The clouds do glow with light. And the dark clouds add the perfect balance. Lovely painting.
"Waxing" is a word that is rarely used any more, except I sometimes hear it in a weather report referring to the stage of the moon. Love your use of it for your title!
Brenda, what a beautiful sky! Now if Pegasus was flying up there, it would be perfect! Those colors always make me think of Pegasus, my favorite mythological creature. Happy painting!
July 9, 1959 – March 23, 2015 Brenda was an artist in rural Maine, working both in soft pastels and oils. She was delighted to have this blog to share her paintings and her process. As Brenda said, "I thank you kindly for your interest."

Beautiful sky. Love the different directions of your brushwork.
You did a great job with this. Really interesting and executed so well.
This is such a lovely sky. Love the pinks and blues.
