I really like this image and it does indeed remind me of nearby Santa Cruz. The buildings and Palm trees look great, and I'm also take with how you captured the sand and water - with restraint letting the 'whites' show through. What type of paper did you use for this?
Hey Claire, this was done in a watercolor sketch book, specifically Canston's, with the hardbound black cover and black wire spiral binding. It's my favorite sketchbook type. I use it more sparingly than other lesser-quality sketch books, because these have gotten mighty expensive lately in the stores... although I see that online they are cheaper (but add shipping cost of course), such as here http://www.artsuppliesdirect.com/bienfangwatercolorpaper11x15-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1.aspx
Very nicel done. You did such a good job of simplifying and then capturing a lovely beach scene. Nice colors too.
