How to Paint a Beach Scene
如何用水彩画一幅海滩风景画
Painting a watercolor beach scene is an easy beginner's exercise because you can add as many or few details as you wish. The wet-on-wet technique required achieves beautiful, soft results that mimic the soft lines of water and sand.
对于一个初学者来说，画一幅海滩风景的水彩画是相对容易的，因为，你可以根据你的愿意来添加许多或更少的细节。湿画法实现了水和沙子的柔软质感，及画面的美丽效果。
Brushes 笔刷
No. 20 flat straight-edge brush 20号平刷
No. 6 round pointed brush 6号尖笔刷
No. 3/0 fine brush 3号或0号小笔
Other supplies 其他需要
Watercolor paper (cold press) 水彩纸（冷压）
Watercolor paint set 水彩颜料套装
Water basin 水盆
Paper towel 纸巾
Palette 调色盘
Note:The paint colors used in this project are Cobalt Blue, French Ultramarine, Raw Sienna and Burnt Sienna.
注：本教程中使用的颜色有钴蓝，群青，生赭石和熟褐。
Using a No. 20 flat brush, paint the top half of the paper entirely with water.
Note:The clear water has been tinted in the photos for demonstration purposes only.
第一步：用20号平刷，在纸张的上半部分平刷清水。
注：在图示中，用被着色的浅蓝色区域，演示刷清水的效果。
Dip your No. 20 flat brush in Cobalt Blue and paint over the water while the paper is wet to allow the paint to spread easier.
第二步：用20号平刷，蘸取钴蓝，趁着纸张是湿的时候进行绘制，在湿的纸张上水彩更容易上色。
Still using your No. 20 flat brush, dip it in French Ultramarine and paint over the previous paint color.
第三步：继续用20号平刷，蘸取群青，在之前画的基础上再画上。
Absorb some of the wet paint by scrunching up a piece of paper towel and dabbing it onto the wet paint to form clouds.
第四步：撕一张纸巾，吸走湿画上的一些颜料，形成云朵的效果。
Place clouds across the sky in random order and shapes by continuing to dab the paper towel on the wet paint.
第五步：继续用纸巾来吸收颜料，在湿画面上随意地划过，形成想要的天空云朵效果。
Clean the No. 20 flat brush and then use it to paint the bottom half of the paper with water.
第六步：洗净20号平刷，然后在画纸的下半部分刷上清水。
Dip your No. 20 flat brush in French Ultramarine and brush it onto the wet paper. Leave a white edge between the skyline and the water.
第七步：用20号平刷，蘸取群青，在湿画纸上刷色。在天际线和水之间，预留一根白边。
While the paint is still wet, dip your No. 20 flat brush in Cobalt Blue and paint over the French Ultramarine. Allow the two colors to bleed into each other.
第八步：趁着画仍然是湿的，用20号平刷蘸取钴蓝，在之前画了群青的基础上继续画。让两种颜色互相渗透。
Using the same dabbing method as in Step 4, lift some of the paint with a paper towel to form waves. Manipulate the shape of the paper towel in such a way that you achieve irregular markings when dabbing. Some waves will stretch along the water and be longer than others. To highlight the waves a little more, you can go back and paint underneath the paper towel marks with a darker shade of your blue paint.
第九步：像第四步那样，使用相同的涂抹方法，用纸巾吸掉一些颜料形成波浪效果。用纸涂抹时，要实现不规则纹路和形状。有些波浪会沿着海水的方向伸展，有些波浪会长一些。为了多点突出波浪，你可以在纸巾吸过的波浪下方，再涂一些蓝色，增加阴影效果。
Clean your No. 20 flat brush and then dip it in a very diluted Raw Sienna. Paint the left side of the paper to form sand, leaving a white area between the water and the sand.
第十步：洗净20号平刷，然后将它蘸满很稀的生赭石。涂料的纸张的左侧，形成沙滩的效果，注意在水和沙之间的留白。
Make a 2:1 mixture of Cobalt Blue and Burnt Sienna on your palette. Dip the No. 6 round brush in the mixture and fill in the white horizon line. Use soft, organic lines to give the illusion of land off in the distance.
第十一步：按2:1的比例混合钴蓝和熟褐。用6号圆笔刷，蘸取该颜料在天际线处的空白区填色。想象那里是远处的陆地，用轻柔的肌理来呈现它。
Make a 1:2 mixture of Cobalt Blue and Raw Sienna on your palette. Use the No. 6 round brush to paint an irregular mound on either side of the coastline to represent a mountain.
第十二步：按1:2的比例混合钴蓝和生赭石。用6号笔，在天际线两侧画上不规则的土堆，来代表山。
Use the 2:1 mixture of Cobalt Blue and Burnt Sienna and your No. 3/0 round brush to paint irregular lines to fill in the mountain. You can also paint a few organic lines on top of the mountain to represent trees.
第十三步：按2:1的比例混合钴蓝和熟褐，用3号或0号笔，蘸取颜料以不规则的线条继续画山。你也可以画几笔，来代表山上的树。
Use the same mixture and brush from Step 13 to paint a few V-shaped figures in the sky to represent birds.
第十四步：用第十三步中相同的颜料，画一些V形图，代表天空中的鸟。
最后，将画装入画框中，非常赏心悦目哦！
苏珊姐说：非常小清新的海滩景观，很好的装饰画。拿起你的画笔，赶紧画起来吧！
