Sunset or sunrise paintings are not so difficult after you learn the correct techniques. 
Here are some tips that might help you next time you create a sunset or sunrise:

1. Don't go too vibrant with your color.  If you apply too much harsh color to the sky it will not look natural. Keep your colors soft, extra color can always be added if you feel it needs it.


2. Create soft edges! Blending color is very important. If you leave hard edges where one color connects with another color it will appear unnatural. 


3. Clouds should be created with similar colors. If your sunset is orange and light yellow at the horizon, keep the clouds a similar color. As the sky turns into soft purple-grey colors, add some to the clouds too.


4. Control the light throughout the landscape. If your sky is a bright golden color your landscape must reflect these colors. Try swapping a normal bright green tree highlight color for a golden to match the light source! 

I hope you have found these tips, tricks and techniques helpful.
