We hope you enjoy the process of blocking in an early morning beachscape.

This is an exercise in understanding the nuance of hue and tone in relation to the light. We’ll be exploring added elements including clouds, waves, reflections, and a headland, being mindful of the warm to cool principles, as well as the effect that the light has on all the objects. We’ll be paying particular attention to the difference in the way light affects all objects, relative to their distance from the light source.

This tutorial will focus in on brush technique, your observation skills, and will require a gentle hand. Get your subtle on! We’ll be using a fairly limited palette to keep our colours under control.

Here is your detailed video tutorial on blocking in your background. The sky and water areas, from the intense light through to the darker areas. If you need additional support for this part, we are more than happy to help walk you through.
