Painting Sunset Seascape
Oil Painting Techniques

 

1
Painting sunset seascape at layers stage 1 demo.
My first approach is the rule of thirds, the canvas or the working area is divided in thirds, I placed the horizon on the lower thirds and the rest is the clouds, I start with the yellow ocher background and I lay out the basic cool colors and the blocking, closing the corners to point out the center of interest.

After the application of a series of break down colors, I blend it with fan brush, mixing each colors without hard lines boundaries.

Creating textures and brushstrokes: I start whirling brushstrokes making the clouds energetic and interesting and breaking up the the divisions of each color, I carefully applied the colors in layers, so as you can see, colors on top of the other colors.

At this stage, the seascape painting is rendered with shades and shadows, add different tone density and the local color of the main subject, foreground descending to background. I fill all the areas and let dry to prepare for the next session. I used paint thinner as a solvent that helps the dying time of the paint.

Final Stage:

The final stage is the measurement of the density of each colors, gradation from lightness to the darkest area. As in the early stage I used whirling strokes in the clouds, the water have different renditions, a slashing stokes horizontally, creating lines, dash,zigzags and curbs. I squint my eyes to blur my visions and feel the effects of sunset.
