Boat on a Beach Step by Step

Image
On April 17, Tuesday, right after I finished my Hummingbird painting, I immediately continued with another Art Sherpa tutorial of a Boat on a Beach. It was a breeze laying out the underpaintings of phthalo blue and ultramarine blue and burnt umber among other light colors for the beach itself. I had to have a break since it was getting dark. Today, Friday the 20th and with a little hesitation, I continued with the boat. After all, what did I accomplish yesterday?  This is how it turned out. I guess I spent a total of 5 hours on it. I'm happy I painted it.  My artwork du jour and also for the week. :-) Underpainting with blues and browns. Some water ripples, shadows, tones and a volumatic boat. After two sessions of about 2 hours each for today (morning and afternoon), I guess I'm done! Here's a cropped close-up of my boat. Hooray!
