Colored pencils are excellent for capturing the fine textures of the starfish and sandy ripples. Markers can provide smooth, even coverage for larger areas, while gel pens can add subtle shimmer or highlight to the small shell fragments.
Begin by coloring the largest sandy areas with light, even pressure. Use a simple color palette of 3-4 complementary shades for the starfish and sand. Outline elements first, then fill them in to stay within lines. Take short breaks to avoid hand fatigue and enjoy the process.
Utilize cross-hatching to create realistic texture on the sand's ripples. Apply color layering with 2-3 shades on the starfish to give it a rounded, three-dimensional appearance. Experiment with stippling for the small tubercles on the starfish's surface. Add subtle shadows beneath the starfish and pebbles for depth.
