How much detail?

The sea, sand and sky have very large spaces. The distant boat has two smaller sails. About the labels.

Try this palette: Garden and sunshine

Choose different lightness for sand and water; leave the clouds white if you like.

A small coloring tip

The side of a crayon or pencil covers the broad beach and sky.

Give the little boat a bright sail color.
