Sea & Shore: Recipes and Stories from a Kitchen in Cornwall (Host chef of 2021 G7 Summit)

Product Information

In the painting of my son Alex on the beach at Waipu Cove. On Arches 300gsm. I mainly used two brushes. A no. 6 round brush and a half inch flat brush. I’ve tried to include as much dramatic contrast as possible by painting directly into the light and positioning the figure for maximum contrast. The effect of light shimmering on the water was done by dragging the nearly dry round brush horizontally across the paper allowing the texture of the paper to create the white space. Your color palette will, no doubt differ from mine, so I offer the following color palette list as a suggestion only.

Southsea beach cordoned off after body found on shore

The shore extends approximately from the water's edge to the high-water mark (the furtherest the sea can reach). After this point, you are on the land proper.There is definitely no single paint tube that I can point you to that is the definitively correct color of the sea. Sea color depends upon a myriad of factors. Where I live, for instance, the sea can range from cool grays and greens through to intense turquoise and plum purple depending on the weather, the time of year/day, the color of the sand and the amount of vegetation and minerals in the water. So you will need to decide on a color palette that feels right to you. Oxford definition) The land along a coast, especially when you are thinking of its shape or appearance. I like to produce small “Thumbnails” to experiment with contrasting values before thinking about adding any color at all. See the examples below. Painting Seagulls

However, the word can in some contexts also just mean "next to the sea/lake/river". For example: "I have a house on the shore" means your house is next to physical shore as defined above (but not necessarily that it is actually on the beach itself or anything like that). Sand needs to be handled carefully. It can be surprisingly problematic to depict convincingly. Sand can vary a lot in its value particularly when wet. It can range from very dull warm neutrals to cool blues and pale pinks and violets. It’s almost never yellow though. Take a flat brush and paint a graduated wash on dry paper, starting from dark blue to pale blue at the bottom wait for the paint to thoroughly dry. Indicate breaking waves by leaving white gaps in your wash. You could mask off white areas with masking fluid if you want to but I usually find it easier to simply leave strategically placed gaps in my wash. Once it is dry, take a round brush and paint the ripples in small curving strokes over the graduated wash. Create the illusion of depth by making the strokes thinner and smaller as they recede into the distance. Painting Sand: Color and Texture

From dictionary definition it might mean that they are similar, but in reality or in actual ocean terminology they are not similar. Oxford definition) The land along the edge of the sea or ocean, a lake or another large area of water. Unlike "shore" the coast can extend inland some way. If you have "a house on the coast" it means your house is within a few kilometres of the sea.
