Blocking in the dark tones first gives a good backdrop for the sunlit boat house. Also careful to observe the sand colours - not just yellow :-)
The photo below shows I have cropped in to paint the areas I am drawn to.

Nice bold confident brushstrokes.
ReplyDeleteLovely sunlit picture. I am observing your technique and cropping very closely and getting ideas on how to tackle seascape/landscape. It looks as if you were some distance away yet you have managed to make an interesting composition with the elements you have chosen.
