Hi today I'm going to show you a really easy technique to paint crashing waves
I'm adding a little retarder or slow dry medium on the sky area
just to make it a little bit easier to blend
but this is optional, if you don't have any you don't have to use it
then I'm using a fan brush to blend my sunset colors together
I'm blocking out the basic structure and shape of the waves
and then we'll slowly build that up later
I'm using the pink and peach pastel colors
and with my fan brush again I'm adding a few clouds
and then darkening the area a little around where the bright sun will be
just to make it stand out more
now I'm using a stippler brush
to gently dab on the spray of the wave
now I'm using my stippler again
to add white and colored areas in the wave
you can really let your imagination run wild and make it as colorful as you like
