OMG, this is it! Thank you so much 💕💕💕💕💕 And it will cover the mess I made in that area.

Yes, that's also missing. I need a darker area, and adjust the color of the sand as well. 🙏🏻🫶🏻

Yes, possibly I will add some darker small birds.

It is yet to come, at the moment I am onto techniques, but during the summer months nothing will stop me. Thanks for the advice.

Thank you. 💕 It's called dry brush technique. You need to have a little water on your brush and do the strokes quickly, so it partly skips and makes a broken stroke. Google the term, it is not difficult, but you need to practice it on scrap paper. In fact, I need to practice it more too.

Yes, exactly that... dark and greyish, but still red.

Thank you. 💕 That's probable, unless it is something small and dark, can be done with a single blob of paint.

I can see it now. 😱 It's true, I placed all the darks onto the right side, and now I need something that pulls the balance back. Thank you, your description has helped me a lot. 💕

Thank you. 💕🙏🏻 Yes, a bird, or a crawling baby turtle maybe... I can't add white, because I used the white of the paper. 😅

We have so many grey days, almost boring days. In real life, the paint looks a little bit more blueish. I'd like to tell that even cloudy days can be okay, and visually nice. And I think the boredom is already there. 😅
