Cloudscape 2 - stage 1

First version

Now that I am back from Illuxcon I am getting back to some painting. This is the second in the series of small sky paintings- a single dark cloud against a white streaked blue sky. Ha! I'm looking at it now and wondering wether to take out the landscape and just have the sky...I think I will! 
OK here is the new version...no landscape. I want them to be more abstract with no narrative context so the landscape had to go.
Stage 1 and 1a were painted in with just a rag using a mix of Burnt Sienna and Winsor Violet thinned with Liquin and turpentine.
