Australian How to Paint

Turquoise Bay 2014

- Daniel Hutchings

The artist has captured the exquisite colours of the water, the sky and the headland.

STEP ONE

After drawing the guide lines onto the canvas, the sky, sea and underwater rocks are blocked in.

STEP TWO

The beach and headland are blocked in and more work is done on the underwater rocks.

STEP THREE

I start to define the rocks and coral in the foreground.

STEP FOUR

A lot of detail has been added to the rocks, and coral and light ripples have also been added to the foreground. The beach rocks and headland have all been defined and clouds have been added to help the compositio­n.

FINAL STEP

Some more work has been done to the sky with extra clouds added and then the final touch to the painting is adding the reflection­s of the sky and clouds to the surface of the water.
