What could be more relaxing than sitting on the beach, painting the waves come and go?

Sometimes the reality is that it's windy, rainy, and challenging to paint on the coast. So I like to practice in the comfort of my studio so I have a game plan!

This class focuses on the following topics:

"Rule of Thirds" Composition theory
Limited palette mixing
Layering gouache
Creating strong texture using dry brush technique

Beaches are a lot of fun to paint, and I'll demonstrate how I approach this topic!

About This Series

Gouache Landscapes is a series of "bite size" classes (all under an hour - Episode 1 is a bit shorter than usual) that each demonstrate a variety of techniques and strategies for getting the most out of gouache. There is no specific upload schedule, but my plan is to release them every 2-3 weeks.

Episode 1 - Misty Mountains
Episode 2 - Autumn Forests
Episode 3 - Waterfall
Episode 4 - Beach
