Adding Bold Colours and Shadows to Our Sketch, Is it worth it? - Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse, Part 2

When I reach my goal I'll upgrade my sketching tutorials with a new camera and use my old camera to give an extra view point in my videos! Perhaps my face, perhaps my watercolour palette, or some close ups of my process!
So this is part two of my Les Eclaireurs lighthouse sketch, using fun line and wash and urban sketching techniques to create a more 'finished', vibrant and detailed image!
The whole painting took me around 3 hours, a long long time for me!
Do you think it was worth it?
I certainly do, really enjoyed this painting. Lighthouses and lighthouse sketching both en plein air and at home are, I think, my long time favourite sketches.
The process for this painting includes laying of beautiful colours, and also careful use of shadows to create a sense of depth and a 3D feeling in the rocks you see in the foreground. The bold colours paired with tonal work are what, I think, makes lighthouse sketching so fun and vivid.
The opportunity too, for lighthouse sketches, to paint a gorgeous watercolour sky, is too good to miss!
I've started bringing together my favourite lighthouses and favourite sketches and popped them up as a card collection on my website - some of the originals (like this one) too are available.
You can find them on -- https://www.urbansketch.co.uk/store/set-of-5-lighthouse-cards
Anyway, enough self-promotion, happy sketching!!
