Step 1: Prepare Your Workspace

Set out all your materials in a comfortable, well-lit area. Attach the artist's grid or line drawing to your canvas to guide your composition. The grid helps in placing key elements accurately.

Using the provided line drawing, lightly sketch the major components of the painting onto your canvas. Focus on the horizon line, mountains, and basic shapes of the sand and shoreline.

Colors Used: Yellows, golds, rich greens

  1. Introduce the sand with soft yellows and creams, blending them gently into the blues of the water.
  2. Add vibrancy with splashes of gold and rich greens, suggesting sunlit grasses and wildflowers.
  3. Use a palette knife to incorporate texture, reflecting the natural roughness of the terrain.

Step 6: Add Final Details
