Colours used: ultramarine blue, prussian blue, madder lake deep, raw sienna Note: be careful not to make the background colours too dark, the darkest darks should be towards the front see aeriel perspective. Test the colour on scrap paper. |

Preliminary sketch for composition and colour. Note dark trees behind boat and that hills and mountains in background are much paler |
Draw boat fairly precisely. Mask out mast, cabin and some ripples in water. |
|
Paint sky loosly with mixture of ultrmarine and prussian blues. Leave some white clouds. Don't worry if the blue runs into the mountains |
Paint in the mountains with a mixture of madder and ultramarine, soften a couple of edges. Paint in closer hills with both blues + raw sienna, soften a couple of edges |
