Tiffany's challenge this week in the Mix-Ability forum is to create a mixed media sandy shore. We can use any technique, so I went with watercolor.
The image I painted is from Unity Stamps, by artist Phyllis Harris. I love her little scenes, and this one is so melancholy. The sunset made the light direction fun to play with to, which is something I don't always take time to do.
I used Inktense Blocks for some texture in the sand - if you're familiar with the Sanded Pencil Background technique I shared a couple of weeks ago, the concept is the same, but so much easier to do with the blocks than a pencil point. The sentiment is from a set I designed for Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.
