Mix a teal color by mixing equal parts ultramarine blue and phthalo green and double the white.If your blue is too "grey" add in a tad more of the phthalo blue. We can now move onto the second ocean layer. Seal the salt onto canvas with another layer of sand paint. Optional texture step: While sand paint is still wet, sprinkle some salt or sand onto the sand part.Pick up some pure sand color on your brush and apply it to the bottom part of the canvas (all the way to the bottom) using back and forth strokes. Clean off your brush with water to make sure its clean.This will create a gorgeous warm green color (which will come below the waves in later steps). Blend the sand color up into the green portion of the ocean (using back and forth strokes). Without cleaning off your brush, pick up some of this sand color and apply it below the green ocean. Add more white to your mix until you are happy with the sand color. Mix sand color on your palette by mixing equal parts cadmium yellow, burnt umber and white.If you have a spray bottle with water, mist the green paint you just painted in the last step with a couple sprays of water to keep it from drying out.MAke sure to leave aa little less than 1/3 of canvas below it blank. The goal here is to green a slightly lighter version of green compared to the section above. Lighten it right on canvas with some white. Without cleaning of your brush paint another section of phthalo green below the blue.The goal here is to create a slightly lighter ultramarine blue compared to the blue at the horizon.
