Acrylic on canvas, 12 x 12 inches. This painting was completed in a course entitled Coastal Canvas taught by Will Kemp at The Will Kemp Art School. I’ve taken many classes with Will Kemp over the last ten years. I hadn’t taken one in about two years, so when he announced this new course, Coastal Canvas.

I was inspired by the course content and the image we were working with. Also, taking a course with Will Kemp is a pleasure. He’s one of the outstanding art teachers in the world.

The course is presented in six 20-30 minute lessons. To take the course, go to the Coastal Canvas link and buy the course. Once you purchase it, you own it as it downloads onto your computer system.

After preparing the canvas, I made a drawing of the scene. As you can see in the photos, I painted the scene following the outline in the course. The following are some pictures to show my progress. I don’t like the sailboat in the middle of the scene, and I will probably change it later.
