Colored pencils are excellent for achieving smooth gradients in the sky and water, and for detailing the intricate leaves and shoreline textures. Fine-tip markers can be used for crisp lines on the distant trees, while soft pastels could add a diffused glow around the sun.
Start by coloring the largest areas like the sky and water with light, even pressure. Use a simple palette of 3-4 related shades for a harmonious look. Outline the main elements first to define boundaries. Practice blending two similar colors in the sky.
Create a luminous effect for the sun and its reflection using layering and burnishing techniques. Employ subtle gradients in the sky and water to convey depth and atmosphere. Add texture to the tidal flats and individual leaves using stippling or cross-hatching. Consider backlighting effects on the distant trees.
