In this step by step lesson you will learn to paint an ocean, you will learn what colors to use, and what brushes to use for the best effects. If you decide to do all lessons you will have a finished painting, I will do 30 minute segments so you can pick and choose what you would like to learn..that way you can put together your own finished painting.
Tip: If you use the same canvas for the lessons you choose, you will beable to do a finished painting, so if you do the sky, then do an ocean, then a lighthouse on the same canvas, you will have a full painting in 3 lessons.
