Come and dip your toes into pastels with this atmospheric wave tutorial, where we’ll be capturing the movement, energy and sparkle of the sea.
In this relaxed, friendly in-person class, I’ll guide you step by step through creating a dramatic breaking wave, focusing on colour, flow and those all-important foamy highlights. You’ll learn how to suggest movement without overworking, build depth in the water, and add light-catching details that really bring the painting to life.
We’ll explore:
Building luminous sea colours in pastel
Creating movement and flow in a breaking wave
Adding foam, spray and sparkle
Keeping your pastels fresh and expressive
This class is suitable for beginners and improvers — no need to have painted waves before, just a willingness to have a go and enjoy the process.
✨ Places are limited, so if you fancy a creative escape and a splash of seaside magic, be sure to book early and come and dip your toes in.
All materials provided unless otherwise stated — just bring yourself and your enthusiasm 🎨
