The place I decided to paint was Venice Beach in California. This was an important place for me because I absolutely love California and I can see myself living there someday and I hope to go to college there too; it pretty much represents what I want my future to look like. The most challenging thing to paint was the water because it is so precise yet so random at the same time and it was difficult to make the wave look alive and in action. I think the most successful thing about it is that I finally got the water to look like it is spraying rather than just there without any movement. The first thing I did was I primed the canvas paper I was using. Then I painted the sky because that is the background. After doing the sky I went ahead and did the sand and then I worked my way back to doing the rocks. Finally, after a lot of work I managed to get the water, I had to use white paint as well as a white gel pen.
