This was probably pthalo green and titanium white adn a bit of lemon yellow. But I will make little tweaks all over the place to make the sky color vary. Hope that's helpful. Good luck. Hi Bruce,

I like to use some pthalo green in my skies. This was probably pthalo green and titanium white adn a bit of lemon yellow. But I will make little tweaks all over the place to make the sky color vary.

Hope that’s helpful. Good luck.

I've tried hard to reproduce the sky colour for my own use. The nearest I've got (I realise that monitors can be difficult) is Manganese blue with white and a little touch of either winsor or lemon yellow. Can I ask how you mixed it please? I like this.

The sky is rarely a uniform color though, so those are the base colors, and then I look for subtle changes in the sky color.
