[CR] Sunset on the sea (watercolor)
We're out of new year's vacation. I've drawn some watercolor drawings during this time. Today I'll show you one of them. This is a sunset on the sea. I want to learn how to draw sunlight, sky and water, so I chose this image for practice.
I didn't draw a sketch for this picture. Here I added paint to the wet paper.
I used watercolor paper with a torchon texture. This paper holds a long moisture. I painted clouds and the multicolored sky at sunset. It was very difficult. I wanted to cry in despair as the clouds merged into one spot.
I chose the colors for my painting.
I wet the paper well at the top of the sheet. There I began to paint the sky.
First light blue colors.
I left a white space for the sun, and from it drew a gradient of yellow, orange and red. I also used these colors to paint the clouds.
I added dark red and purple colors to the horizon line. And I also painted small clouds on the horizon near the sun.
The next step is to paint the sea. I wet some of the paper. I painted the yellow stripes-reflection from the sun. I also added red, brown and purple colors. This reflection of the sunset sky in the water.
At this stage I used the darkest blue colors. I added dark waves to the foreground. And the shadow of a sailboat.
Now I started drawing a sailboat. I used the darkest colors-a mixture of Indigo and purple. I painted the sailboat and the birds in the sky.
My painting's ready!

I'm glad you had fun with your holiday, and welcome back :D.
What a great picture, clearly you have succeeded in drawing the sunlight, sky, and water. That sunrise is so beautiful, the sky and sea are blending together in its wake <3.
Nice painting, Veta ^_^.
Hi, dear @scrawly, I'm glad to see you! I'm glad I'm back on Steemit and I have some drawings that I can show here :))
Thank you for your kind words :)
No worries, Veta. I'm looking forward to see more of your art :D.
Also nTopaz will only vote every other day, just letting you know in advance :).
Thanks @scrawly :) I understand that there are too many talented artists here who also need support. So I have not only an art blog :) In the next post I will tell you about the festival of ice sculptures ( teaser he he he) :)
Oohhh!!! That is exciting! Maybe like the sand sculpture post that you wrote sometimes ago :D.
Not as global as with sand figures, but it seems. By the way, I learned that sand and ice figures are created by the same sculptors! It's amazing.
How beautiful is his work @veta-less, I love how the sunset looks on the water and the gulls in the distance look incredible.

I'm glad you liked my painting! It was very difficult for me to paint the sky and the water, I think it gave drama ;)
Very nice. I love a sunset.
