As I was driving the couple of minutes to my location I thought about some key learnings from painting clouds in the past.
-Capture the shape quickly.
-Establish the lights and darks and don't over work the first impression.
-Don't chase the changing shapes but work to get the values and detail within the shapes correct.
-Work from memory.

The clouds were the focus so the mountains in the distance had to be subdued. I have a tendancy to not exagerate the atmospheric perspective which has a tendancy to make my paintings less realistic. Once I was happy with the clouds I started on the mountains so that they would have the right relationship.
