STUNNING SUMMER SUNSET

Sunsets are awe-inspiring subjects, and trying to capture the brilliance of their colors has challenged

artists for centuries. This particular sunset has everything: Deep reds, purples, and blues at the top of

the sky make way for golden yellows just above a calm sea at the horizon. Remember to blend the

pastels to create a believable sunset featuring soft, gradated colors.

Loosely trace or draw the elements of this scene onto your paper.
