This is a very in depth tutorial on how to paint waves. I won't give you a step by step breakdown of one specific picture, rather, I'm giving you overall concepts that you can apply to any wave picture. I always recommend working with a reference image if you are new to painting a specific subject. This video took a little longer than planned, but I hope you like it!
Materials/instruments/colours I used:
Prime Art Iris Acrylics: Cadmium yellow, primary blue, brilliant red and titanium white. You can use any acrylic paint that you are comfortable with.
