Description: This is just a simple tutorial on "how to draw a sunset" step by step. Sunsets are probably one of the most beautiful visions to see as well as a sunrise. If you were to ask me what I thought was more beautiful I would have to say a sunset. This is because a sunset has all kinds of different colors in the sky when the sun goes away to rest for the night. I love it when the sky has hues of purples, oranges and pinks. I think those colored skies are the best. The sunset that I will be teaching you how to draw is in a beach setting because it is the summer time and I thought that since summer is here, a nice beach scene would be the more proper thing to draw. Anyway, I do have to go yet again because as you know my tutorial submission is not through unless five go up a day. I take pride on filling the requests that people want so that you all can draw your very special or favorite character, animal, object, place, and even scene. I hope you guys have fun learning "how to draw a sunset", I will be back soon. Peace out and happy drawing.
