Today,
How to paint figures on the beach, no drawing and Contrejour.
In this week's tutorial I visit a beach at Camber Sands in East Sussex, to observe and paint several figures on the beach and in the sea having fun in the summer sun. The idea was to show you how easy it can be to suggest figures in your painting without getting bogged down in trying to draw them in detail. I also wanted to show you all the effects of painting into the light ( Contrejour). The references and line art can be found over on my Patreon to freely download and enjoy.

Palette box is a cheaper version of a Holbein offering a 20 slot palette. If honest I have way more colours than if ever use. I often only use a few of these and a version of this palette with fewer slots would be better for most.
My brushes are mainly Rosemary and Co, Sable, and Synthetics.
My watercolour palette is as follows:
