A water colour painting of a beach scene by Manju Panchal

“The world always seems brighter when you’ve just 

made something that wasn’t there before.” 

Neil Garman

I recently completed one of my watercolor paintings 

on Canson Moulin du Roy paper and am posting the completed work

along with the steps involved in creating it. It was an early 

morning scene, when we were at Colva beach 

and it was not crowded. The stretch of sand far across, 

and the misty look in the distance motivated me to create this work.

Step 1. Created the sky using a mix of warm and cool colours, and added the distant foliage on the left. Used wet on wet technique as I did not want to have hard edges in the distance.

Step 2. Created the bushes on the left ( Camlin Artists water color tubes ), the sandy seashore and the ocean. At this stage I have not added details anywhere.

Step 3. Added layers of colours to the bushes on the left to create the form and shadow, and flat wash of colour on the sandy seashore. Added details to the figures on the beach.

Fishermen returning home. A water color painting by Manju Panchal

“Dance with the waves, 

move with the sea, 

let the rhythm of the water, 

set your soul free”. 

C A Martine

A water color painting of a scene that I came across

 while I was at a seashore in Goa. Through this painting 

I wanted to capture the monsoon atmosphere,

 a cloudy evening sky and its lovely 

reflections at the beach. The fishermen are 

returning home after their day out at sea. 

The painting is also intended to tell their story.

Water color painting of Sand dunes at the seashore

"At the beach life is different, 

Time doesn't move hour to hour

But mood to moment.

We live by the currents, 

Plan by the tides

And follow the sun."
