The first day of #pleinairpril. I’ve done this challenge for a few years now and although it’s pretty tough to get out and paint every day in April, it’s great motivation. I love having a diary of my month in little paintings!
This evening I went to Wreck beach after work. I didn’t think the sunset would be great with it being so cloudy, so I focused on this nice pattern the water made on the sand.
 
Painted as part of PleinAirpril challenege 2024, where I painted outside every day for the whole of April.
