Two More Sky Paintings

OK these pics seem blurry to me for some reason. Two more smaller paintings. Did a larger one too but it just doesn't look right. Of these two I like the bottom one and am not as big on the top. It needs something.

These are "less dramatic" than the ones below. I need to figure a way to make the more subtle ones have some drama. The top one is too abstract. You might not even know it was clouds.

For many years I painted. Then I stopped. These paintings started out a sort of experiment. Even when I did paint I never did watercolor. I spent a lot of time trying to be Van Gogh painting oil. Most of the paintings were unfinished. I decided to start using watercolor based only on the recollections of what my father had tried to teach me years ago. I didn't start by drawing, I didn't practice. I just painted. I haven't included ALL the paintings and at some point I will post the first ones I did. But most of the paintings--for good or ill are here. Some are oil and also gouache.
