Learning from Sorolla's "Niña en la playa" (girl on the beach)

It was fun trying to paint in Sorolla's style, using Richard's excellent lesson & paint-mixing explanations. This is my attempt at copying this painting from a photo I found on the internet, though just now I found an even better photo which shows the colours he used much better. Really enjoyed this lesson & learning how Sorolla painted white objects/fabrics with so many beautiful shades of colour in them.
