Continue to paint the whole sky leaving no gaps between the shapes of color
Now that you are done blocking the colors change the edge hardness to softer and lower the opacity of the paint to 20 to 30 %
Now begin to blend the shapes of color so that there are smooth transitions
Notice the hard edge between the colors
Now notice how it fades from yellow to darker yellow
