Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Acrylic paints: Ultramarine Blue, Cadmium Red, Cadmium Yellow, Titanium White, and Burnt Umber.
Paint brushes: Flat, round, and fan brushes.
Canvas or watercolor paper.
Palette for mixing colors.
Painter’s tape (optional).

Preparation

Set up your workspace by laying out all materials. Ensure you have a clean area with good lighting.
Use the included grid or line drawings as a guide. If using the grid, lightly sketch it onto your canvas to help with composition accuracy.

Background and Sky

Sky: Begin by using a large flat brush to paint the sky. Mix Titanium White with a hint of Ultramarine Blue for a soft, sky blue color. Apply broad, even strokes across the top part of your canvas. Gradually blend in more Ultramarine Blue towards the bottom of the sky.
Clouds: Add clouds using more Titanium White with a touch of Burnt Umber. Utilize a fan brush for a light, airy texture.

Water and Beach

Water: Mix Ultramarine Blue with a small amount of Cadmium Green to capture the deep tones of the sea. Use horizontal brushstrokes to create a sense of movement. Add a touch of white to indicate reflective areas on the water's surface.
Beach: Use a flat brush with light sandy tones (mix Cadmium Yellow and Titanium White) to paint the sandy beach. Blend smoothly into the water area to give a natural transition.

Cliffs and Rocks

Cliffs: Mix Cadmium Red with Cadmium Yellow for the vibrant orange cliff. Apply with a palette knife to achieve texture and movement. Use bold, diagonal strokes to convey the rugged cliffside.
Foreground Rocks: Use a mix of Burnt Umber and hints of the blue mixture to add depth and form to the rocky areas. Use a brush to detail edges and shadows for more realism.

Final Details

Refinements: Go over the entire painting and add any necessary highlights or shadows to enhance depth and detail.
Personal Touches: Add any additional elements or tweaks that reflect your personal style or interpretation of the scene.

Finishing Up

Allow the painting to fully dry. Review and make any final touch-ups as needed.
Sign your piece, and consider framing it to display your work.
