We picked a canvas that was about a third as wide as it was tall (120x160 cm / 47圆3 inches). It was determined that a landscape format would be best for this subject because it fit my initial vision. Decisions were needed on the size and shape of the canvas.Preliminary paintings of sea studies were completed.Days were spent observing and photographing the waves on a small stretch of coast.This sea painting demo was done without any preliminary sketch of the composition on the canvas, but don't assume that it went straight from blank canvas to what you see in the photo.īefore putting brush to canvas, a lot of visualizing and planning was needed: ![]()
