To bring you closer to the tranquil feeling of holidays, in this class, I will take you step by step through illustrating a stylized landscape of a beautiful seaside with turquoise waters and calming waves. 

Like many of you, I love to create environments for the stories and characters, and I want to show you how to bring the essence of the environment to your audience. 

In this class, you will learn:

  • Quick tips about layouts and composition
  • What brushes to use to paint water
  • How to paint water, ocean, and waves using blending techniques

  • How to use real-life references to add details and characters

I will be using Procreate app on my iPad, but feel free to use any drawing software or medium you prefer.

You will find a link to the mood board with photo references and color swatches for Procreate and other drawing software in the resources section. 

Let’s get started - see you at the beach… I mean … in the class :)
