Painting a Scene at the New Jersey Shore

Decided to take a Sunday off and go to Island Beach state park New Jersey. I took along my painting set along with the camera and had a great time.

I brought along my french easel and used a 10 by 20 inch canvas.

I always use gamblin oil paints. I have quite a large variety of colors.

For the sky colors:
Used a mixture of 80% prussan blue and 20 % titanium white for darkest blue part of the sky.

I kept adding more and more titanium white to lighten the color until I got to the horizon line.

I did the same for the sand. Starting out with about a 80% raw siena and 20% titianium white for the darker areas and mixed more and more titanium white to get the lighter shades.

The song is called Isolated and it is performed by Kevin MacLeod
