End of Summer 18" x 24"Oil on linen

The first hour we spent with me doing a demonstration. I shared  some basic principles in atmospheric conditions while painting by the ocean, composition and the importance of values in laying out your painting. We decided to work with just three colors, Crimson, Lemon yellow, & ultramrine blue, plus black and white. These basic colors are all that’s necessary for the beginner seascape painter. They can cover a large gamut of colors and although other hues are necessary you gain more experience, three were plenty to get the job at hand done. Thanks to all of you that came out and I look forward to doing it again real soon.
