Have you ever wondered how to color a dreamy sky using markers? In this tutorial, Bogiki will walk you through each step of creating a soft and beautiful sky using Ohuhu markers. You’ll learn how to blend pastel shades, add depth, and create highlights to make your sky look dreamy and magical.

1. Step-by-Step Guide: Sky color drawing with markers

1.1 Step 1: Color the base of the sky

To start coloring your dreamy sky, begin by applying a base color. Use a soft beige or light pastel shade to fill in the background. This soft base acts as the foundation, allowing the other colors to blend easily. A perfect option for this is Pastel Pink - RV160.

1.2 Step 2: Add depth with a pastel pink shade

The next step in coloring a dreamy sky is to add depth using a pastel pink shade. Use Pastel Pink - RV160 to gently apply the pink color in the areas where the sky meets the horizon or around clouds. This soft pink will bring warmth to the sky, creating a gentle transition from light to dark.

1.3 Step 3: Add details using a deeper pink

For a more dimensional look, use a deeper pink to add definition and shadows. This deeper shade will give your sky a richer appearance and enhance the clouds and areas where the sky is darker. Bogiki recommends using Dark Pink - RV270 for this step.

1.4 Step 4: Blend in the sky background using pastel pink

Now, blend the pastel pink from Step 2 throughout the sky. This helps to create a seamless gradient that flows naturally from one shade to another, mimicking the soft, dreamy look you want to achieve. Keep blending until the transitions between colors are smooth, giving the sky a soft and calming effect.

1.5 Step 5: Layer with a darker pink

To add even more depth and contrast to your dreamy sky, layer a darker pink over the areas where you want to create more dimension. Use Rose Pink- RV220 to add highlights around the clouds or in the areas of the sky where shadows would naturally fall.

1.6 Step 6: Color the clouds and add a darker blue

Next, color the clouds in your dreamy sky with a dark blue to provide contrast. Deep Blue- B260 works perfectly for coloring the clouds and adding a touch of depth to your painting. Apply the blue to the outer edges of the clouds, leaving the center areas lighter to create a more natural look. This contrast between pinks and blues will help the dreamy sky feel more balanced and atmospheric.

1.7 Step 7: Final touch – Add random dots for texture

For a whimsical touch, add random dots throughout the sky. These little dots will create texture and help soften the look of the sky. Use a yellow or light-colored marker to dot areas of your sky, mimicking the effect of light shining through the clouds or stars twinkling in the distance.

1.8 Step 8: Use a White gel pen for highlights

To bring out the softness and magic of your dreamy sky, use a White gel pen to add highlights. Draw soft, curving strokes or dots around the clouds and other bright areas. These highlights will create the illusion of light reflections, making your sky appear illuminated and alive.
