Learn to Paint! A Beach Scene in Watercolor for any level artist, step-by-step guidance, free photo.

“Gems on the Beach”
A beach littered with volcanic rocks, and edged with clear blue-green water. It is a ‘portrait’ format, and has all the elements for a busy, beautiful watercolour painting.
It is recorded in real time, with commentary.
And I apologise for the cropping of the image, and knocking the tripod!

The rich green teal colour that I used in the water was Cobalt Teal Blue. The cerulean is Manganese Blue Hue.

End Music: Epidemic Sound Cody Francis: "Mountain Air"

I hope you enjoy watching this painting, and maybe consider having a go yourself.
