Learn How to Paint SUNSET DOLPHIN DIVE with Acrylic - Fun Paint & Sip - Step by Step Tutorial

VIDEO DESCRIPTION - This painting tutorial will take you through easy to follow, step-by-step instructions on how to paint this vibrant landscape image of "SUNSET DOLPHIN DIVE" with acrylic paint. You'll learn simple painting techniques that will help you to develop a realistic glowing sunset sky with a natural reflective body of water with distant tropical islands adorned with silhouettes of palm trees and a small school of jumping dolphins. Maybe the time of day I morning or evening… you can use your imagination! You'll learn how to add atmospheric dimension in the sky and in the ripples of the water by painting in a loose abstract style using complimentary colors in the water giving the illusion of a reflection. You'll also learn how to paint silhouettes of the large fish and trees with a sunshine glow along the edges of the trunks, fins and flipper by painting a soft highlight on the side closest to the light source, giving a real photo quality to the painting. With perfectly proportioned sizes in the big aquatic mammals and strategically placed shadows and reflections, the large intelligent marine animals will have a 3-d look to them as they dance and jump through the water. The bold dark colors add a moodiness to the seascape, but allow it to have a sense of quiet stillness in this tranquil natural scene. With the construction of the composition you'll learn to paint this realistic looking outdoor waterscape that may resemble an ocean or a sea with captivating trees along the edge that are reflecting their unique style into the water. You can customize it to be the representation of any fish that you would like, or any style of trees that interests you. Make it your own with a family of fish, or a sailboat drifting by, or even a flock of birds flying through the sky… just have fun with it! This painting is sure to impress the viewer and compliment the décor of any room. Using only 3 brushes and 6 colors we'll create this conversational masterpiece with a magnificent lively energy in a charming tranquil setting. So let's get painting and let's get sipping!
