Remember to switch back to the topmost layer again. While painting I found that the clouds are very near to the light house so we can switch back to the layer which has clouds and adjust the clouds by erasing and then painting some thin ones instead. Then draw a lighthouse just at the end of the landmass. Paint some coconut trees in between roughly to make it more interesting. Keep drawing the strokes till you have covered roughly a little less than 1/3 rd of the canvas. Colour pick the dark red colour and paint some vertical strokes on the symmetry line. We will keep using the same f) Bristles-4 Glaze brush, but with the size of 125px. Now will paint some vegetation, and land on the horizon. Add some to the top as well for the clouds nearer to the horizon line since the light can come from behind too. Also pick the light yellow colour and add in highlights from below. Then pick the dark red from the last row and paint with slight pressure in the bottom of the clouds to show the effect of the setting sun’s light from below. Since the light is coming from below, the top part will be slightly darker. Video showing how to draw the cloudsĪfter adding the base colour for the clouds, pick the darker purple from the last row in our palette and paint it on the upper side of the cloud. Press key to turn your brush into an eraser and erase unwanted parts if required. Add big horizontal patches of clouds at the top portion and as you go towards the horizon line draw sleeker thinner clouds. Pick the dark purplish colour from the second last row of the palette and start drawing the clouds. On this new layer, we will draw some clouds. Now click on the plus icon in the layer docker or simply press the key to add a new layer. Or you can also lock it by checking the option “Lock Y Line” which you can access by clicking on a small arrow near its icon in the toolbar. Make sure to move the grab handle out of the canvas to not move this line accidentally while painting. This tool will help us in getting some reflections that we see on a wet beach.

This will add a horizontal line on the canvas, there will be a grab handle on it, drag the line by holding it and position it roughly above our horizon. And also enable the vertical mirror tool by clicking on the second mirror triangle icon beside the size slider. From the top bar, we will change the brush size to 180px. You can also search for this brush using the search bar at the bottom of this docker. Activate the Brush tool then from the brush preset docker choose “ f) Bristles-4 Glaze” brush. Choose the final stop at the end and choose the purple colour, the third patch in the second row from the top.Īdd a name to the gradient, here I have written “Seaside-01” (5), and then press the “ Ok” button (6). Again choose the fourth stop and choose orange colour at 100% opacity and position at 75%.

Similarly, for the third stop we pick an orange colour at 100% opacity and position to 25%. Then choose the second stop and change its colour to light orange, opacity can be 100%, change it’s position to 10%. You can click on the colour box (4) to open the colour chooser dialog and pick a colour from the reference image by using the eyedropper button in the colour dialog. In the first stop let us add the light yellow colour. We are going to add 5 stops, two at the edge and three in the middle (3). A dialog box will open for adding a custom stop based gradient. Click on the gradient Fill gradients button in the toolbar (1). Now we will create a gradient for our base colour.
