As soon as I saw the tutorial by Paul Clark, "Boy on Beach," I knew, I had to paint it. I decided to make it into a birthday card, for my husband Sandy. We have two wonderful grown boys. Back in the day, we would often get up early and drive to the New Jersey shore. Our kids loved the water.
I transferred the template offered to Canson 140 lb. cold press watercolor paper, using my light pad. I painted the youngster with Winsor Newton Cotman watercolor tubes and used a pastel white pencil for the white highlights.
My hubby Sandy was delighted with this card!
