  • Build your skills gradually through 6 step-by-step demonstrations of particular skies worked from photographs, each looking at a particular sky effect, from the bright clouds on a fresh, blustery day to rich sunsets. Each main stage is shown both before and after blending for clarity.

  • Sandra's 'sky clinic' offers more specialist and technical help on some of the common problems readers might encounter when painting skies in pastel. A "first-aid course" in how to identify and correct common problems.

With numerous handy tips and many examples of Sandra's stunning landscapes throughout, and assuming no prior knowledge, Sandra both instructs and inspirse you to create beautiful, realistic skies with confidence.
