Synopsis

Created for busy hobby artists, this book presents 33 ocean-themed watercolour projects that can each be completed in 30 minutes or fewer. Every exercise is broken down into 10 steps or fewer and supported by full-size tracings on tracing paper, helping you focus on painting rather than drawing.

The sequence builds skills gradually, beginning with calm water and rippling tides before moving on to more varied coastal subjects such as crashing waves, boats, buildings and sun-bleached sand. Along the way it covers core watercolour techniques, including preparing paper and paint and blending, with projects worked at postcard size for a 6 x 4in (A6) watercolour pad. The book concludes with three larger finished paintings, each supplied with an actual-size tracing, to show how the techniques can be brought together into complete seascapes.
