What's In This Picture
As you look at this scene, you will find a tall lighthouse perched securely on a rocky cliff. The lighthouse lantern room sits at the peak, ready to shine its light across the ocean waves that lap against the stones. The sun is the star of the sky, casting long rays of sun through the air. You will also notice soft clouds floating nearby. The lighthouse itself features small windows and a single door, inviting you to imagine the keeper living inside while watching the sea. The large shapes of the rocks and the wide ocean provide plenty of space for color.
Coloring Tips
Consider using a bright yellow for the sun and its rays to make the page feel full of warmth. You can use different shades of blue for the ocean waves, perhaps adding a bit of turquoise near the rocks. The lighthouse often looks iconic with red and white sections, but you could also try a weathered yellow or a stone gray. For the clouds, leaving them mostly white with just a hint of light blue or purple for shadows can make them look very soft. The rocky cliff provides a great chance to practice blending different browns and grays to show texture and depth.
Did You Know?
Did you know that every lighthouse has its own unique flashing pattern called a light characteristic? This helps sailors identify exactly which lighthouse they are looking at from far away in the dark. Lighthouses are like giant, glowing fingerprints for the coastline.
Try This!
You could try drawing a small sailboat out on the water or adding some seagulls flying near the clouds to add more life to the scene. After finishing the page, try looking up real lighthouses from around the world to see all the different shapes and colors they can be.
