Painting water in all it's forms has become very satisfying for me. I like the movement of the water and the changing light across it's surface. Also, I have become more daring in my color mixes. By accident I discovered a nice dark which I have increasingly been using. This dark is the result of mixing ultramarine blue, burnt sienna and raw sienna. To me it is a more natural appearing dark than payne's gray.
I feel that I got a good start to this watercolor. It was moving along well the other day but I just have not had time to finish it.
Painting a beach full of stones can be a challenge. However, I think it could be an asset to this painting. Nevertheless, it is the greatest challenge for me in this watercolor.
I like the developing warm and cool colors in this picture.
