In this video, I’m painting a breezy little beach scene in my sketchbook—complete with bright umbrellas, turquoise water, and loose, gestural ink lines. This is one of those relaxed, no-pressure tutorials where the goal is to have fun, stay playful, and capture the feel of a sunny day by the ocean.

This is a scene from our new neighborhood in Portugal, so I had to throw in the red and green umbrella! This is perfect for beginners, sketchbook lovers, or anyone dreaming of a beach day (even from your studio!).

Grab your paints and let’s escape to the coast together 🌊
