DAY 3 -      Bethany Beach Park Trail

DAY 3 -      Bethany Beach Park Trail

There is a wonderful park in Bethany Beach, Delaware full of trails and beautiful scenery. I took several photos of the scenery so I could paint them. This was one of my favorite trails that ended up at an inlet where you can see a lovely beach community across the water. 

For my 3rd day I decided to paint on a toned paper. I selected a medium olive tone paper. It took getting used to. I was so used to painting on a stark white paper. I want to paint a lot more on toned paper and lean the best techniques. It was fun to try and learn. The picture here is of the 4"x6" pastel painting with an extra piece of the toned paper I used under it.
