Water Colour tests

The Palm tree on the sand kinda went a bit runny. The blue I used for the aqua kind of over-powered the sand colour. So what I ended up with is a water logged island. Almost like the plam tree is growing out of the ocean. I did use a dark green felt tip pen on the leaves of the palm tree. It looked like a blob before I put in a few lines.
I like how the sunset turned out. The clouds and the pinks in the water really seem to pop. I think it really looks like the setting sun over the ocean. Oddly enough for such a small painting it took me a long time to get the colours right.
