Hi Annie and welcome to the Marine Forum ..... I do so envy people who can paint with watercolours .....lovely work..... the turquoise and white foreground is gorgeous .... ....maybe the horizon line needs to be straightened .....
It's great to have another Anne/Annie on board!!

Hi, Annie, we are spoiled over here with amazing coastline. Esperance in particular has that pure white sand, and the crystal clear turquoise water.
You did a good job on this piece. Normally I'd be commenting on the horizon too, but with the midground indicating some decent sized surf you can often get a lumpy horizon with swells marching across it.

I've recently started experimenting with watercolours and I think this is quite good. I'm attempting seascapes but I have a long way to go with them until I get a decent picture. This is a very pretty one.

I like this - lovely clean colours and a very real sense of movement.
