Hints and Tips for Painting Waves in watercolor

It's done!
Ready to ship!
What is it?
My second DVD on painting waves.
See the You Tube trailer on the top right >>>>>>

Hint's and Tips for Painting Waves in Watercolor

There simply wasn't enough space in the first DVD to say and show everything I want to share, so I put together another DVD workshop with more tips and practice exercises to show more options for painting the parts of a wave. This new DVD is 1 hour and 38 minutes. It is quite different from the first wave DVD called Making Waves.

Hints and tips for Painting Waves in Watercolor is an informative fun filled video workshop using basic watercolor techniques and the easy to follow practice exercises for learning how to paint each part of a wave. I will demonstrate how to use three different brushes and several brush stroke techniques so you can find a method to that works best for you and your style of painting. I will also share some of my special tricks and special effects to help you reserve and recover whites as you paint frothy foam and splashing sea spray.

For those of you who would like to have a printed version of the practice exercises I demonstrate during the DVD workshop Hint's and Tips for Painting Waves, there is a companion workbook available. (Sold separately) This loose leaf 33 page workbook is designed to be used along with the DVD or can be used as a stand alone resource.

Mt Rainier Painting SHORT Trip

SHORT TRIP to Mt Rainier 2010

This years trip to the mountain to paint the wildflowers on Mount Rainier was a wonderful experience. The wildflowers were a little late this summer due to the late snow melt, so I suspect we would have seen more blooms the following weekend, but we certainly could not complain about our weather this year! It was gorgeous!

There were four of us painting from the parking lot at the Sunrise Visitor's Center on Saturday Above are: Hilary, Lori and Terry applying brush to paper and behold (!) here we are with our paintings!

We will go again next summer maybe you can join us!
