WCW048 Beach Views

Photo Details

Poster: JBgreendawn

So, I am totally in when someone says lets go to the ocean. ( always )

the one that is dried on the right I did late last night and I was not real thrilled with the color I mixed for the water and I think the shoreline was too curvy so, I tried it again real quick today after work and I was able to use a paper towel to dry the brush off more and I got better looking waves and clouds I think with a dry-er brush. Thanks for this challenge Brenda, & tfl.

I think that both of your paintings look great, Stacy. I admire your perseverance to create a scene that pleased you more than your first attempt.

I love both but, like you, I love the color of the water on the left one. It is a color I wish I had used. Your watercoloring is excellent on both and I like the beaches as well as all the rest. Good work. Thanks for joining us and hope to see you next week.

Both paintings look beautiful! I love the color of the water in the second one! You did an amazing job of featuring the bright light reflection on the ocean water! Fabulous cards!

Two beautiful cards, Stacy. Really like the reflection you created with the white space. Isn't it fun creating colors with the mixtures. Thanks for showing us the comparison with less water. Your grasses are fantastic with their wispy look. The added props also shows us what you use for your tools. Those are my favorite brushes. You sure are a natural with this medium. Thanks for joining us this week.

Your brushing technique was all the fine tuning it needed. Fabulous!

These are great Stacy! I am never happy with my first painting but have usually, not yesterday, learned to just go with it because it sometimes gets worse not better. But I do love your water color in the second painting. The other parts of the first are just great though.

I like the second one a bit more than the first one because the sand is a bit too curvy, but the water looks great, both are pretty beach scenes!!

Good job on both and you got beautiful whitecaps in both versions - though like you, I do tend to like the gentler edge on the beach in the painting on the left.
