Sunset

To create this scene I started by creating the boat by using the bezier tool and artistic media tool to make an outline and graphics. After that i set it to the side and made my birds with the artistic media tool by just drawing them. Then i set them aside and made the sunset colors by making 4 rectangles 2 on the top and 2 on the bottom each with a different color and blended the top rectangles then blended the bottom rectangles. When that was done i had to make the sun and its reflection. The sun is and circle with a gradient fading to the right and half covered up by the "water". The reflection is just copies of the original sun only smaller and with a transparency to them. The final thing i had to do was add the boat and birds into the picture along with the addition of the wake from the boat which is just the bezier tool with a fill.
