(note: make sure the scruffy is dry before using, a damp scruffy brush makes a mess)įeel free to add ocean waves to your painting or elements on the beach. We don’t want a solid line of froth, just a bit here and there. Let some go into the water and some over the beach. To merge the beach with the ocean use the 3/4″ scruffy with some Wicker White a dance it along the edge. Add less Prussian than Cobalt as you go.Īs you get closer to the beach, add Wicker White to the brush with the Cobalt Hue to lighten the ocean.
Keep painting on the blue adding more as needed as you descend the canvas. Stroke the paint horizontally, as you did the sunset sky, onto the canvas with the Prussian Blue at the top. You may get some paint bleed but that can easily be cleaned up.ĭouble load the 3/4″ flat brush with Prussian Blue and Blue Cobalt Hue. Tape off the sunset sky so you keep a good line while you paint the ocean. (as I did on the trees in the Vintage Truck painting) Paint the Ocean
You could also do this with a wadded up piece of sponge. Pounce the paint-filled brush up and down over the beach leaving a mottled look to the paint. To create the added texture load the 3/4″ scruffy brush with Linen and Wicker White. You can just paint on the beach and be content, adding more white to brighten it up but I wanted more texture in mine. Let some of the underpainting show through in areas. Add in a touch of Coffee Latte here and there. Paint in the beach following the contours. Using the 3/4″ flat brush double load with Linen and Wicker White. To add the smudge drag a dry brush across the sun very lightly before it is fully dry. You can leave the edges crisp or do as I did and smudge them as if the sun is shimmering in the sky. Paint in the sun with a mix of Wicker White and Moon Yellow.

I wanted the sun to be going down on the horizon so it is a half-circle, but you can make it a full circle higher in the sky. You can decide the size of your sun and you can put it higher in the sky if you like. To get the shape of the sun I used a tin can to trace around. This is a fun option you may wish to try sometime. This is just the underpainting that gives the sand some depth.įor the beach painting on wood I created, I added some sand to the wet paint for added texture.
Fill in the beach area following the curve of the beach. Load the 3/4″ flat brush with Burnt Umber. Remember less is more, if you want to add more of the Autumn Leaves color then you can do so later. Depending on how wet your yellows are will determine how it blends in. Add a touch of Autumn Leaves to your brush and streak it into the yellow. Reload and stroke on down to the waterline. To avoid hash marks in the canvas, pull all the way from one side of the canvas to the other in one long stroke. Stroke the colors onto the canvas horizontally.
( need to know how to double load? See Basic Brush Strokes here) Paint the Sunset Skyĭouble load the 3/4″ flat brush with Yellow Ocher and Moon Yellow. You can see the faint pencil line in the next photo. Sketch in a beach with a bit of a curve for added interest. There is no need to be perfect, this is just approximate for the layout. First, divide your canvas or surface of choice into thirds.
