Rough sketch :

                           This painting is drawn from the perspective of two people enjoying the sunrise from a caravan. Draw a rough sketch of this detail with a pencil before starting to paint. Don’t forget to cover the sides of your sketchbook with tape for a clean border.

                            If you are a sky watcher, you would have noticed that the sun usually appears at the bottom of the sky’s expanse. It starts with a lite golden hue at the bottom and the parts of the sky mixed with the sun’s rays, turns into a beautiful turquoise shade.

                           To recreate this, start with a layer of blue acrylic paint and then add a layer of yellow paint at the bottom of the sketchbook for painting. Paint a layer of green in between the blue and yellow layer, to highlight the sun coming up the sky.

                            Time to paint the dawn sky. Instead of using a paint brush, let’s dab paint onto the square sketchbook with a sponge to add texture. Dab a layer of navy -blue acrylic paint at the top of the sketchbook.  With a paint brush, paint layers of cobalt blue paint.
