hello everyone hope you're doing well thank you for coming back to view
another painting with me I am going to be doing
ocean colors tonight I feel like I've been experimenting with like metallics
and darker colors and all my swipes that are really colorful and I miss my Blues
so I'm gonna do it on a three panel crashing ocean wave tonight I have not
done a three panel one I've done a couple that are two panel that come up
together but never a three panel one in that crashing wave style so I wanted to
go back and try this I had mixed up my paints
a while back I'm hoping that I don't spill these
oh okay
so I have and this is just a piece of plastic wrap oh it's really stuck on
there these paints actually sat for like
almost a week and with the plastic wrap on they're fine I'll just have to keep a
look out and see if there's any little bits and pieces from the side of
the cup as it dried but I think it should be okay
so I thought about oh so the colors I almost forgot I'm using a
um a aqua and aqua green
turquoise blue a sky blue and I'm going to use the sky
blue and white together and then I'm using of course phthalo
glue and of course paints Gray so that what's that
those are my colors all right and then I'm using white
so I'm gonna start out the sky and I'm gonna do predominantly white and
I had to think about how I want this to Crest too I think I want this one
to come up and just the tiniest bit of white right here and then to really
crash down this way and maybe even a little piece of the sky still up there
so I drew I painted my sides first as well so that I could get good
coverage and the blue that I used is actually not one of these Blues but the
reason that I used it is because it's opaque so I used
Kings Blue by Amsterdam and this is an opaque blue so that the sides won't show
through the canvas won't show through
all right all right I'm just going to go ahead and
get started I'm gonna start with my white all the way down here
and then like I said I'm going to go up and just a tiny bit right in there
and then the rest of the white through here
maybe just a little bit of it up there in the corner
just in case that'll probably go off but
yeah I think so I think I'm gonna have it crash right back down through there
and I'm going to take a little bit of my blue
I'm just gonna kind of lightly add a little bit
and then I'm gonna swirl it on around
almost like clouds in the sky and when I blow it
actually maybe I'll I don't know I don't normally use the um
palette knife I talked about this when Olga was here as well I don't normally
use the palette knife because it gives me too much paint in the center
um she does though and hers turn out beautiful so there's
no right or wrong way I'm just not used to it so I think I will blow this a
little bit
[Music] foreign
[Music]
[Music] I feel like I need just a little bit
more white right there maybe I will just do that with the
palette knife and it already has some blue on it
and then my sides I will come through and touch up later
just a little bit right here
I said I'm going to touch it up later and then I go and I touch it up now
oh maybe I'll touch them up at the end okay I just I just wanted my Crest to be
a little bit more through there
I don't know how this is gonna turn out I don't use a base on this
where the actual Blues are because I want them to catch the canvas and mix
together if your colors are getting maybe a little bit it's not really muddy
because they're in the same color family but if your colors are kind of blending
together too much it could be that if you're using a base coat underneath all
the colors are just going to Glide I like for my colors for this specific
technique to stick to the canvas and then you can blow them to create the
wave shape but not again neither is wrong there's almost no wrong in art
right so I'm going to start with my dark
layering my dark blue in
my crash again is going to come down kind of through there
trying not to drip
and when I'm doing this you really want a good amount of
paint on the canvas and you want to be able to make sure that you're going to
get to your edges and I like layering
light and dark in between each other because when I blow them out that gives
me that
beautiful like water like cell reaction
depth really okay I'm gonna go I think I'm gonna do
my lighter
and I am going to blow some into that white
I'm not super worried about that
yes yes I
really like this already
pouring in these big cups
all right did I get all my colors I think I left
out this color
which is the turquoise blue
oh I just had enough of that one I think okay now let me get a little bit more
white
oh I am so excited to see what this one looks like
very different and you really have to think about the composition
on this one because it's on the three panels
and the white is just really going to brighten up those dark
blue areas
apparently I'm going to have a white corner there
okay let me give this a good torch
since I did have some air bubbles
and I see one little thing in here get you out now all right are you ready
let's blow this one out

y'all I am
so happy with this piece
I made a couple of like executive decisions
halfway through so I was trying to decide whether or not I wanted my colors
to come back through here and I notice now that I I missed this entire spot to
blow but I just there's not that much paint
on it and I might just I don't know like
draw some parts back up into there to make it look like it was
blown just the same I don't know I don't
okay there we go I love it
love it love it so I had decided right up here that I was going to leave a
little bit of white but then it just didn't make sense to me for it to be
crashing like this and have that part right there still white so I put the
color and I blew it so it's lighter up here almost like the top of the crusting
wave but not that it's just like stark white over there
my cell reactions are phenomenal I love the little mixture of
the sky in between
um all right I'm going to
this part right there
um I don't really like that I want it to be
a little bit more
there this right here can have a little
flicking parts
up I'm just smoothing out a couple of areas
so that it looks like it's
this part right here everything else
really happy with so I'm going to give this a good torch I'm going to touch up
my sides I love the curve that's here
and that's it I'll show you what it looks like
almost forgot to show you the wet
result I've already got them over on my drying table
I love the addition
of the blue into the White Center
Olga Sobe talked to me about that when she was
here painting in my studio and when she did her
paint and water swipe wave she poured them into a cup
and then poured them out so I thought I would swipe and blow and see what
happens but I am in love with it and I will take
you in for all the details when I show you how it dries
I really love the way that this one came out it has just got super colorful
Blues everywhere
it dried really nicely I love the swirls in the center
it just really looks like a rough crashing wave like being in the center
of a barrel wave
I love it
came in on some of the other parts of it
it looks a little bit messy and just exactly like water splashing
I want to go big with this one I want to do one that's like
three two foot by four foot pieces all right well I hope that you enjoyed
the video this was super fun to make as a triptych and super fun to do a
different way of design thank you so much for watching!
happy painting! bye!
