Supplies Needed:
To create your masterpiece, you need:

• Pencil
• Tissue paper

Step 1: Draw The Sun

Start by drawing the sun. Use a light orange gel crayon to create a circle, or a circle with a flat bottom, to look like a setting sun.

Tips: Do not press too hard, or you will make it difficult to blend colors later. The softer and lighter you draw, the easier it is to blend the colors.

Step 2: Add Colors To Your Sky

Using the same orange gel crayon, draw curved lines around the sun. Blend the orange color with a white gel crayon by gently rubbing the two colors together. This technique will create a halo effect around the sun to show that the sun is setting.

Then take a light blue gel crayon and blend it with the orange and white in the sky. You can also use the blue, white, and orange to create a gradient effect in the sky.

Tips: Use a light hand to create a soft, blended effect. You can always add more color if needed.

Step 3: Adding The Ocean

Take a light blue colored paper, or any other blue color nearby, as a guideline on where to put the ocean. Use a dark blue and white gel crayon to color the bottom portion of the paper. Blend the colors together with tissue until you get the desire oceanic color.

Tips: Use a tissue paper to blend colors easily and to avoid accidentally smudging colors with fingers.

Step 4: Draw Silhouettes

Use your finger, or a tissue paper, to smudge black gel crayon on the horizon line of the ocean. This technique will create a silhouette effect for boats, bird, or any other object you want to add. You can draw birds with white gel crayon, going into the sunset, to create a more picturesque scenery.

Tips: Smudging with a finger or tissue can create a unique texture and an easy-colored silhouette.
