Colored pencils are excellent for the intricate details of boat rigging, cottage windows, and path textures. Fine-tip markers or gel pens can add precise accents. Brush markers are good for smooth coverage on larger areas like the river and sky.
Begin by coloring the largest areas like the river and sky with light, even pressure. Use simple, complementary colors for the cottages. Outline elements first to stay within lines. Take breaks often.
Create realistic water reflections by mirroring elements above with slightly distorted, lighter shades. Use cross-hatching for texture on boat hulls and stone path. Experiment with subtle gradients on cottage roofs for depth.
