Sand and Shadows

 
Posted by Picasa


This is the first lesson I gave at a new location, a senior living complex located in Stuart FL. The students were fairly new at doing watercolors. We imprinted the sand fence using short pieces of matboard that we trimmed as we went along. This made it easier to gain perspective and add depth as the fence diminished in size toward the water. The shadows were added the same way. Adding sea grasses, gulls, water and shadows helped to give this painting definition. Everyone did a great job and were pleased with the results.
