Seascape in Oils for Beginners | Marcel Desbiens

Learn the step by step process of painting the shallow water wave. Capture the transparency, colour, energy and texture of the spray and the splashing of water by using the right brush strokes and variation in colour dilution.

In this one day workshop you will learn a quick and easy way to paint realistic representations of waves in motion. Marcel’s expertise and easy to learn techniques, developed over years of experimentation and research, will enable you to achieve instant results.

Be assured that if you have completed a few of Marcel's seascape workshops, Marcel will have a different image to paint on the day.
