Sunset in the Ocean.
Painting Class Taught by Clina Polloni. Lear how.
This sunset in the ocean was painted in a beautiful coastal beach of North Carolina. A good peace for the painting classes. Learn sunset clouds, sand and waves wreaking in the rocks.
Instructions:
- Start by drawing the seascape.
- Give a washed of acrylic gold to the canvas. Acrylics are very good for under-painting, they create a worm color that once you put the oils or acrylics in the top, they look brighter.
- Next paint with oils or acrylics in the following order: sky, ocean, sand and finally the rocks.
- Sign your work of art.
