Beach icon - from sketch to result

I just want to share my process creating these icon. From very rough and unclear sketch :D, to full colour icon.

About my process, let me say something like this :

1. Rough sketch

2. PROCESS ( include more imagination, more visualisation, more spontaneous,more music to play and more creative mind )

3. Result

Let me know what you're think about my process :D, or how about yours ?

Thanks,
Krisna
