I left you hanging on the Sand Beach Coloring Tutorial yesterday for the Ocean Water Coloring Tutorial. This is day 2 of 30 days of coloring techniques for June! 

My name is Sara, and I am fueled by popcorn and Dr. Pepper. I figured it would be every day to give a random fact about myself, but you can read more here.

Ocean Water Coloring Tutorial

As a fast reminder, this is part 2 of 3 for the Beach Vibes series. This is a reminder of the final version we are working towards. And today's part is 6 steps! 

Tools Used

For today's tools used specifically:

Ohuhu - Y62, B03, and G324  (V22 will be tomorrow)
And Artisto White Acrylic and A Sakura White Gelly Roll.

The Yellow Glitter Gel Pen also makes an appearance.

Below is the video of how to achieve this effect, and the video is under 1 minute! Give it a watch or read the step-by-step below!

Ocean Water Coloring Tutorial Step-By-Step

Step 1: Use Y62 in horizontal lines, leaving white spaces. They don't need to be perfect horizontal lines. 
Step 2: Use B03 to color in the rest, but do it in horizontal half-strokes.
Step 3:  G324 to create some dark lines along the waves to help give the water depth and motion.
Step 4: Apply B03 back over those G324 to blend a little. Leave a few as is.
Step 5: Use the yellow Glitter Gel Pen to dot some of the Y62 spots that are strongly sticking out in color from the water. 
Step 6: Use a white acrylic to go over just above the G324 and even add some stipple around the lines. You can also add mini crosses for sparkle. 

That is it! Tomorrow, I will be adding some definition to the sand and water with V22 and finishing up the sea foam effect while making use of white space. After tomorrow, I will be diving into a creek tutorial.
