The Scene: Simple Yet Serene
I wanted to keep the focus on the essentials: the vast expanse of blue water, the soft sandy beach, and a lone beach umbrella offering a sliver of shade. The mountains in the background add a touch of majesty to the landscape. And of course, the star of the show is the water itself, gently flowing back and forth, creating that mesmerizing ebb and flow of the tide.
Colors: A Soothing Palette
I chose a simple yet vibrant color palette to capture the essence of a sunny beach day. The sky is a clear, calming blue, transitioning into a soft green where it meets the distant hills. The water is a rich, inviting blue that gets lighter as it approaches the shore. The beach is a warm sandy color that contrasts beautifully with the cool tones of the water. And the pops of green on the beach umbrella and distant foliage add a touch of life to the scene.
Animation: The Essence of Movement
The animation is subtle yet captivating. The water gently flows onto the beach, then recedes, mimicking the natural rhythm of the tides. It's a simple animation loop, but it adds a sense of life and dynamism to the scene.
Future Plans: More Details to Come!
This is just the beginning of this pixel art journey. After my 30-Day Challenge, I'm excited to add more details and bring this scene to life even further. Think playful waves crashing on the shore, foamy whitecaps dancing on the water, graceful birds soaring through the sky, and fluffy clouds drifting lazily overhead. Plus shading to really add more depth.
