Colored pencils are ideal for rendering the intricate details of shells and the subtle textures of driftwood and sand. Fine-tip markers can be used for crisp outlines, while watercolor pencils offer soft, blended effects for the sky and water.
Start with the largest areas like the sand and water using light, even pressure. Use simple color schemes with 3-4 complementary shades. Work from the background forward to avoid smudging. Focus on staying within the lines for clean shapes.
Create depth in the sand using stippling and layering with 3+ shades of beige and tan. Apply subtle blending for smooth gradients in the sky and water. Use small strokes to emphasize driftwood grain. Add reflective highlights to wet sand and shell edges.
