I normally paint the sky first....But not with this one

Eymet, France, Watercolour, 15" x 11"

The sky is normally the first thing I paint, but not with this one.  I wanted to go for a deep blue sky, darker in value than the buildings.  So I painted the buildings and foreground first, then went in with my dark blue sky, carefully painting around the outline of the tops of roofs.  It sort of worked.  

I did a video of this.  Is it worth putting it up on YouTube?

Painted on Saunders Waterford, Cold Press, 300 gms.
