I will show you the whole process of the different layers of colours that I apply, from the underpainting to detailing ot the final layer. You will get lots of information hearing me explaining what I do while you see me painting, always seeing the colour palette that I`m using, too!
In no time you will be able to paint like that.

Thank you for not yelling or playing loud obnoxious music in your videos like so many other art tutorials do.
Very easy to understand, very useful, thank you 🙏🏼🌹 Subbed.
Thank you so much :-))) I try to do it in a halfway decent manner, I also do not like when people are yelling in a video without a reason for doing so and of course, too loud of a music is highly annoying - so I will not use this in any video :-)))
Agreed. He's real and doesn't try to be an idiot to entertain. Great video.
Yes, I agree.
Agree ..I hate music while I am looking something..to concentrate, to learn, music is not helpful
It is always best not to paint fantasy clouds but directly from nature. Of course, it is important that the light and shadows on the clouds correspond with the light and shadows in the picture.
This is the first time I've come across your work. Cloud's cloud's and more cloud's. I can't get enough of them. Absolutely up there with the best of them.
Thank you :-)))) I`m also a big fan of clouds, simply love to paint them :-) There will definitely be more cloud painting tutorials coming in the future so make sure you check back from time to time :-)))
Clouds, not Cloud’s
Heaven feeling.
The Best cloud painting tutorial I have seen so far
Thank you so much :-))))
I come back after a while because you make everything seem so easy to paint! You're so gentle and you explain things pretty well.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE VIDEOS ❤️❤️
Glad to have you back :-))) And thank you so much for your wonderful words:-)))
I searched cloud painting and this is the most realistic drawing .
Thanks a lot Kamrunnahar :-))))
I like how you start out with sloppy or random colour placements, but then blend it to look great.
I just started painting and I am very sloppy and half hazard with my colours and brush strokes, and your videos are helping me to be able to work it into something that looks presentable. Now I need to work on being patient, taking my time, and the details. Thank you.
Thank you James :-))) And yes - I was/still am like you, my impatience sometimes takes over, especially when I get tired after long hours of painting...it is a struggle but you can definitely learn to keep your temper at bay.
Good luck. IMHO as a beginner, painting clouds, like real clouds, is an elusive art. My own art teacher told me her next project after summering in Europe was to take more classes just to learn how to paint clouds. She's ever experienced and taught art herself, although now retired. I've been trying and all of mine come out flat.
I've recently come upon your tutorial's ,and I find them very helpful. The way you approach clouds are very helpful. Thank you!
Thanks a lot Michael :-)))
I haven’t come across your tutorials before. This is the first time I’ve seen this technique used. Very useful and clear to understand. I just love skies and clouds so thank you 🙏 😊
You`re welcome :-)))
Thank you for these video's, I have been trying to make my paintings more realistic, and this is flawless.
Thank you :-))))
Amazing artwork. I do the digital art and now i am working on clouds, your video helped me to understand some rules. Thank you
Thank you Natalia :-)))
Do you find getting work tough?
Same for me! ;)
OHHH thank you! I am painting a barn scene and need really cool clouds, this will help immensely!!
You`re welcome Julieann, and please let me know how it came out :-)
Blew me away…. WOWWWWW
Thank you!
I am not an artist and I cannot paint or draw but I am very impressed with those who can produce these kinds of images. Not only the painting skills but also the ability to imagine what a scene should look like.In this case visualizing a cloud formation. Very interesting and enjoyable. Thank you.
Thank you so much Rob :-))) But I used here some photo reference as a guide, this is NOT pure imagination.
@@brennerfineart Honest of you to say but still very impressive.
@@rob5763 Thank you :-))
Thanks Mate, a fantastic tutorial, I often find myself looking at storm clouds thay can be mesmerising, Just like your painting,
Thank you & stay safe.
Thank you so much Glenn :-)))
Thank you for helping me solve my problem with the blending of storm clouds. I am busy with an acrylic paint project and find the blending of the dark and greys challenging but I think this will help me 😊
Great :-))) And thanks for letting me know!
thank u so much for teaching us i was looking for something like this a long time
please keep posting videos like this ❤️❤️🙏🏻
Thanks a lot :-) And yes, I will keep on posting every Sunday evening a new tutorial :-)))
Realistic 👍👍👍👍
Thanks a lot :-))))
Can't get over how talented you are honestly you're amazing
Thank you Eve :-)))) I agree that talent makes it come faster but basically ANYONE can learn how to paint like that - so you just need to invest the time to learn how to do it :-)))
You are one of my favorites, you are at the top of the list. You pay attention to details and what you paint looks like an actual picture. I'm aspiring to that. I have to use a reference or it doesn't look good. It's ok to take as much time as I need to get it right. So glad I found you on yt.
@@lisacurtis8162 Thank you Tonya :-))) But I have to admit - I also use reference photos. I rarely show them, at least not in the shorter YT videos. But yes, I mostly all of the time use some kind of reference photo to refer to. And that`s what basically all the realist painters are doing. Some copy the photo, some paint it a bit more loose, but in the end, all the REALLY good realistic painters use reference material. And I truly believe that this is nothing that we artists have to be ashamed of. I don`t like tracing, but to refer to a photo helps a lot, teaches a lot and you end up with a painting that looks realistic. If you specialize in one subject matter than you can, after a lot of paintings, perhaps come up with a painting that still looks realistic although it came straight out of your head. But until then I would not get mad if your paintings that you do without a reference photo are not at the level that your paintings have that you used some kind of reference for :-))) Even Michelangelo and especially Caravaggio were using models to refer to, they were even using the same light setting that they tried to get onto the canvas while they painted their amazing paintings. And I bet a million dollars that those guys would definitely use a photo reference if they would have been able to rather than a tired and shaky model to draw and paint from :-))))
@@brennerfineart ty so much for replying to my message. I'm out of your league but I'm going to keep on drawing and painting until I learn. I'm going to look up Caravaggio because I'm not familiar with him. I love Davinci, I'm sure that his references were right in front of him. He had to have been present for alot of autopsies. I'm saving your reply because it has some ideas that I didn't think of, like perfecting the lighting. Ty so much.
@@lisacurtis8162 I really like your spirit, your motivation - that reminds me of myself ;-))) I spent so many hours on the easel having fantastic motivating but also very frustrating moments - as long as the desire to become better is strong in you you WILL get better by simply investing the time. You will make it :-)))) Caravaggio is someone I look up to, people that really keep me from thinking "hey, you are now at the top level" - no I am not...but I will keep on crawling uphills until I hopefully am :-)))
I love clouds…they are so beautiful and this is truly beautiful and I can’t wait to try this
Thanks a lot Katrina - yes, give it a try :-))))
HAHAHA OF ALL THE PEOPLE OVERWELMED BY THE CRISIS AND WORLD POLITICS
THIS GUY IS JUST CHILLIN AND PAINTING PRETTY CLOUDS I LOVE IT KEEP THAT ENERGY ITS AWESOME
very very very good pain job wow so perfect too and man BIG HUGGYS FROM VEA ♥
Thank you so much :-))) And I think, what could I do to really prevent or stop these things from happening? Let`s face it...nothing...I can act by donating money and hoping that all the innocent will not get harmed but that`s about it...a very wise chinese man once said something like "if you can`t change it don`t waste your time thinking about it" (VERY!!!! free translation) but he is 100% right. Do not waste your precious time, live your life!
Really enjoyed watching your technique 👍 it looks amazing and thanks for sharing🙂
Thank you, you`re welcome :-)))
Wow it's really mind blowing art 👍🎨😘😘😘
Thanks a lot :-))))
So beautiful. Always wondering how to paint clouds. Now I know. But now I have to paint it by myself. Thank you so much for this tutorial!
Thank you :-)))) And yes, give it a try :-)))
Wow. You are a genuine artist. The real thing. Thank you!
Thank you Lars :-)))
Absolutely beautiful work, I really want to learn how to do clouds. I’ll be watching more of your work 🌸
Thank you Lisa :-))) Glad that you like my videos!
When I reflect that God forms shapes of clouds in perfect blending and great contrast towards sky blues, adding light that is more than painting, and even moving them in a dancing fluidity and grace... Well, you are a genius among painters for your art has a similar result in beauty.
Thank you so much Bianca :-))) This really means a lot to me (by the way, do you write? Your words sound epic...gave me goosepimples!!!)
@@brennerfineart I write, yes, among other things, and am honoured to receive your answer back! It was truly what your images suggested me: inspiring poetry! 🥰
@@biancagalaverna Well deserved :-))) I admire people that can wield words like I wield my brushes - I wrote some little short stories centuries ago but perhaps one day I will make a "comeback", it is a lot of fun building up a whole universe with words. And really great that my brushwielding inspires you :-)))
the most relaxing paint video i have ever watched beautiful
Thanks a lot :-)))
Your work is amazing and your presence is beautiful. Thank you for taking the time to post this
Thank you so much for your beautiful comment!
This is mind blowing! 🤯Seriously, you are brilliant! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much Rachel :-))))
Perfect 👍👍👍👌👌👌👌
Thank you :-))))
Deeply fascinating to watch and listen to your thoughts, approaches and techniques.
Thank you :-)))
Best clouds tutorial ever!!!!!!! Simply flawless
Thank you so much Rosa :-)))
Ah....beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!
Could you please tell us what colour shades you have used?
Thank you :-))) I used here Titanium white, Cadmium red, Phthalo blue, Dioxazine purple and lamp black.
Your lessons are such a blessing! Your clouds look literally touchable (if a cloud could be literally touched that is ha-ha)! =0)
Thanks a lot :-))) Yes...clouds are "magical beings", I truly love to paint them (therefor so many cloud painting tutorials on my channel ;-)))))))
@@brennerfineart Yes! And, 'mist'ical too. ;) The ultimate shapeshifters. Ever-changing, fluffy sky sculptures. =0)))
HEY! I'm soooooo glad I found your tutorials (Subscribed) because clouds can really frustrate me (especially knowing when to leave them alone and let them be). Thank you so much!
@@angelseraph139 You`re welcome :-)))
I’m fairly new to oil painting, so I find all your videos very helpful. Thank you again and please continue, you’re very talented
Thank you Debbie :-))) Yes, I will go on producing tutorials, every sunday evening, so make sure you check back :-)))
This is truly a GREAT resolution and detail. Amazing! Great work and thank you for sharing this video. Happy new year!
Thanks a lot Morten :-))) I also wish you a great 2023 :-)))
This is perfection
Thank you :-)))))
As an artist, I find that my real talent is straying from the numbers without disturbing the nuance of the subject.. doh.
Ok :-)))
Perfect.A wonderful tutorial .So clearly demonstrated. Thanks
Thank you Sabiha :-)))
Awesome! The best Cloud Tutorial on RUclips I've seen. Very Informative and inspiring.
Thank you so much :-))))
Are you German? 🇩🇪
Yes I come from Germany. This strong accent of mine is undoubtedly not from a native english speaker ;-)))))

Thank you so much, it is meeting.Need to learn much more, every day, and your way helps me a lot.
Thank you Ivancica, you`re welcome :-)))
Gives me a different perspective on clouds. Going to try this. Thanks
Great :-))) And please let me know how it went if you find the time to.
Shame you don't show what colours to mix
I have to cut the whole video to reduce the length of it...in my early days I tried to show full time tutorials here on RUclips but they did horribly as people bailed out of them after 7, 8 minutes...which is bad when you have a 1 hour video...so I HAD to reduce the length of the videos (which helped the rentention and therefore RUclips started to recommend them out to more and more people) and sometimes the cut is a hard one unfortunately...
Very true. Maybe you could quickly say the colour while painting. I really want to paint clouds as I am just a beginner in painting.
The clouds look so real though. Thank you.
@@lorettarodrigues2682 I do use the same 7 colours on every painting - Titanium White, Lemon Yellow, Raw Sienna, Cadmium Red, Phthalo Blue, Dioxazine Purple and Lamp Black. Sometimes I am not using all of them but most of the time I do. And I also put them in this order on the palette from left to right. So basically I use always a mixture of those colours, NEVER the pure colour itself...these colours are enough to mix basically every single colour you ever need :-)
Thank you for not yelling.❤🍀🍀🍀
Glad that you like how I make my videos and thanks for your feedback :-)))
Impressive thank you for this, I’ve been trying to better understand how to use and manipulate oil. This helps, I intrinsically understood some of this but wasn’t sure about how to do the edges and I love fine detail so I can’t wait to try out your methods. Painting is so relaxing! Again beautiful work
Thank you :-))) And just take your time...it all boils down to staying consistent with your painting habits. And over time you will get how its done :-)))
Fantastic, they seem real, thanks for the demonstration.
Thank you so much Rosario :-)))
AMAZING EXPLANATION
VERY BEAUTIFUL
Thank you so much Vinita :-)))
Huge thanks for this tutorial!!! Looks amazing!!!
Thanks :-)))))
I haven't painted in many many years. I came upon your video and while watching it I thought I don't like his technique. Anyhow, I put your techniques into my first cloud paintings and lo and behold, it worked. So I will be patient and watch your technique and continue to learn. Thank you
Thank you!! Yes, it`s a bit of a different technique but it`s pretty effective when it comes to painting clouds :-))) And not only clouds ;-))))
Cata rabdare ai, cei mai frumosi nori pe care i-am vazut într o pictura. FELICITARI.🌺♥️
Multumesc foarte mult!!! Și cele mai bune salutări :-)))
Makes me melt, those are so awesome!
Thank you Ronda :-)))
You are very talented. I love listening to your description as you go. I am very inspired to start painting. I have wanted to since I was a child, but never have. My Aunt is a very talented painter like you....thank you for sharing and inspiring 🙏
Thank you so much Jane :-))) And GO FOR IT - you gonna love it :-)))
Great, compelling information, brilliant - both visually and skillfully done!
Thank you Dennis :-)))
Very beautiful . Thank you for sharing your talent and your amazing work with us . ❤🙏🙏
Thank you!
I've been following along and learning (as you know) and last night I was painting a cloud (first time)...that doesn't look quite right.....so I used a soft brush to soften it....then this morning I thought "I wonder if brenner has a video on clouds" and sure enough. Then when you used a soft brush to soften, I thought "damn I really am learning from him" I picked it up when you used the technique for another painting and I applied it to clouds.....
Very good!!! Picking up a skill and translating it to another painting, that is what is painting is (nearly all) about :-)))
Unbelievable, wonderful, amazing. 👏👏👏
Thank you so much :-))))
Stunning
Thank you Linda :-)))
Wonderful! I want to improve on my clouds. Layers of grays always a good start.
Thank you Richard :-))))
Very nice! Gorgeous clouds!
Thank you so much Carol :-)))
Very beautiful painting as always! It was very relaxing to watch you paint
Thank you so much :-))))
Really great clouds and technique
Thank you so much Marcus!
Excellent work. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Jay :-)))
Amazing work. I have been painting two and a half years or so and am not at your level yet but that's the goal. Thanks
Thank you Jeff :-))) Keep on painting - it takes a while to really start to "breathe and live" painting but it is achievable with some patience :-)))
Your every painting is master peice. I will follow your techniques
Thank you so much Talat :-)))
Incredible!
Thank you Alexandre :-)))
Perfect timing. I'm currently painting a thunder cloud (very poorly) and need direction. I'll try your blending methods. I think that's where I'm going wrong.
Great video. 😁
Thank you so much :-))) And great that you found the video just in time :-))) all the best for your thunder cloud painting :-)))
you are fantastic! Pieces of the puzzle have finally fallen into place!
That`s great :-))) And thanks a lot :-)))

Wonderful.Ilove these clouds!
Thanks a lot :-))))
I use water mixable oil paint also. I like it. Great job on this video. I’ll be enjoying more of your videos for sure!
Thank you :-))) Water mixable oils are fantastic - no more smelly and cancerogen thinners and you can still use normal oils for thinning the colours down - just perfect :-)))
Thank you so much for sharing nice tutorial. I learned lot
Glad that I could help you with this tutorial :-))))
Thanks for the tutorial, learned a lot!
