Keeping Cool.

Same place and same day. Of course I couldn't go home after the previous.
The weather does change in a single day as well. I often wrote about how the morning is more splendid, and these days, that's certainly true.
Here I was having my lucky day, unlike painting #189 where I was standing in the heat, here I stood in the shadow from the 'baywatch' building WOW. What a difference, keeping cool. More fun and less suffering.

See all those colors for 'sand'. Sand is the difficult one! Colorwise, but also the juggling of 'highlights' within this 'midtone' area.
The far, the near, and the left right center. These all need different variations of 'sand'.

In the previous post I show pictures of this scene and how far I stand away from 'my subject'.

Your Seascapes will get that spark of life in, when you can paint them there: standing on the beach.

Even if you don't live near a beach, you can book a holiday to a place near the ocean and start painting there.

If you want to get inspired with my videos about painting Seascapes, you can find my video course How-to Seascapes here and ►Painting Summer Seascapes is here.

I created a painting course 'How-to Paint The Sun'
► You can find it here.
It can help you with your Sunrise or Sunset paintings:
offering inspiration, theory, examples, demos, helpful tips for quick and simple improvement.

► There is also a specific painting course
about 'Painting the Sunset at The Beach'
