Golden Shores: Abstract Sea and Sand Painting

An abstract canvas capturing the Golden Sand Beach where deep blue-green waves meet the shore with grace, blending textures of sea, sand, and light.

I sought to capture the essence of a sunlit shoreline, where deep blue-green waters meet the land with gentle grace. The waves glide forward, touching the coast with tenderness—embracing it softly, falling with a smile, yet always retaining their elegance.

This dance between the sea and the shore teaches us a powerful life lesson: no matter how many times life pulls us back, we can always return with renewed strength, leaving behind warmth, beauty, and meaning—just like the waves that endlessly return, never giving up, always graceful in their persistence.

Material used:
Canvas – 20 X 24 inch
Acrylic colour, Acrylic Wall Putty, Palette knife & Brush

Things I learned:
As a newbie, I am learning so many things first-hand with every piece I create, and this time is no exception. I discovered a few more lessons along the way—things that might seem simple to others, but for someone experiencing them for the first time, they are truly worth mentioning.

First, spray water on the canvas before applying color—it helps in blending different shades more smoothly. Use at least a 3-inch brush since the coverage area is large, which makes spreading the paint easier and more even.

I started by painting the upper portion first. Later, when I sprayed water on the lower portion, a few drops accidentally fell onto the sand area, leaving visible water marks that I didn’t notice right away. Only after finishing the painting did I realize the cause. So, be mindful of this and try to avoid such mistakes.

Now, let’s have a look at the work 🙂

Hope you like this.
