Start Simple So You Can Make a Big Splash

Get your toes wet with basic brush techniques and simple strategies before diving deep into all how’s and why’s of seascape painting. Then take the plunge and expand your skills further with an in-depth look at painting the clear water of the ocean. My tri-colour method will enable you to tackle any subject, even if you are new to painting, new to acrylics or haven't picked up a brush in years.

You want to be able to paint stunning seascapes with confidence

The Problem is:

  • You are having trouble make the waves curl

  • You don’t know how to make the water look clear

  • You need help with blending, mixing and matching colours

What if you could:

  • Get clear, detailed and easy-to-follow instructions and a systematic process to follow that will get you results

  • Join a friendly and supportive learning community where you can get ongoing support, without fear of judgement

  • Prove to yourself that you do have what it takes to become an artist and potentially even sell your work

When you use the Successful Seascapes Formula

You will master techniques like:

  • The reflection and refraction approach to painting waves that look like you can dive right through them.

  • My tri-colour method for making 2-dimensional images appear 3D

  • Colour mixing, colour matching and using deconstructed colour for more vibrant work

I’m very impressed with this course, and indeed the other BBH Art courses I have done. Jen is a great teacher, who was able to lead me to finish a painting that I’m very happy with, and to which I’m proud to put my name . The instructions are well set out and easy to follow and the videos make it so easy to go back to check on something whenever you want. As a former teacher in the creative arts area, I think BBH Art workshops are excellent and I highly recommend them.

I found the wicked wave painting workshop easy to understand and follow. I did not do it all in one go as life gets busy, but what I did find was that it was easy to pick up where left off. Jenny's instructions were easy to understand and apply, and if I missed a step I could replay it. I also liked the fact that Jenny gave guidance, but the painter in me could still add my little ideas too Thank you Jenny.

Meet Your Instructor

Course Creator Jenny Buchanan

I've been creating and selling paintings and mosaics for 25 years.   Over that time I have sold well over 1000 artworks, won several painting awards, participated in gallery exhibitions and have two public works of art to my credit. I have taught painting classes in acrylics, watercolour and pastels. For the last ten years I have been selling my paintings and mosaics only online. While I have had quite a lot of success as an artist I don't believe that to be my greatest gift. Since launching my first online course in March 2020 I have come to realise that my true gift is being able to show other people how to paint. I also know that getting the best results for my students requires a full time commitment from me. That is why teaching online is all I do. Documenting my processes for the creation of painting lessons has helped me to exactly define my methods so that I can then pass on what I know in a clear and concise way. My experience as an online seller means I know how important it is to have great communication. Having taught in-person classes means that I understand how personal criticism of your work can feel which is why I only ever offer supportive, constructive (but honest) feedback. So I guess what I am trying to say is that I believe I have a unique set of skills that makes me ideally suited to teaching art online. The wonderful feedback I get from my students and followers each day seems to back up this claim. I have painted in a variety of styles which is one of the reasons I was approached by Artable Studio to teach and why I am able to help students paint better while maintaining their own unique style. Staying true to your personality is the only way to achieve real painting success.

To get to the end of the journey you need to take all the steps

Each lesson contains art theory and techniques you can use in all your future artworks:

Each lesson contains not only a video demonstration but also detailed background information on the 3 important concepts that are demonstrated in that lesson. These are the techniques, tips, art principles and methodology that will move you from copying to creating. I also dig deep into my own painting mindset because I figure the stumbling blocks I have come across in my artistic journey are quite possibly the same ones that you are facing now. If I can share with you how I get my head around the difficult stuff then it may just help you to get that lightbulb moment a bit sooner. Here are just a few of the skills you will master:

  • Blend colours seamlessly

  • Create depth in your painting using perspective

  • Mix and Match colours

  • Use light and shade to make objects appear 3D

  • Transition colours

  • Learn to paint shadows

  • Create a compelling composition

  • Fix mistakes without having to start over

  • Make your whites appear brighter

  • 3 different ways to transfer an image to canvas

Start Your Transformation Into Successful Seascape Artist

Here is my promise to you

  • 30 Day Money Back Guarantee

    I am dedicated to ensuring your acrylic painting success but this is a program for action-takers. I want you to feel confident that you can put your trust in me so I am making you this promise. If you put in the work, complete the lessons, reach out for help when you need it and I have still been unable to help you improve your painting skills I will gladly refund your course fee (less the value of any gift cards you may have received)

Key questions that others are asking:

  • What materials do I need?

    As soon as you enrol in the course I will send you some instructions on how to get started, including a list of which materials you will need.

  • Do I have to wait for each lesson or can I get them all at once?

    All lessons will be available for you as soon as you log into the course. You can watch them as many times as you want.

  • What if I fall behind?

    You can work at your own pace. The lessons will always be there for you and I will always be there to answer questions, no matter which stage of the course you are at.

  • What if I am interested in more than just seascapes?

    The visual tools and art principles you will learn in this course can be adapted for use in any type of painting.

  • Is this just for acrylics?

    This course has been designed with acrylic painting in mind. I believe acrylic is the easiest medium to master, particularly for beginners. In acrylics you can work light to dark or dark to light and easily go over your work to fix mistakes.

  • Will I learn to mix colours?

    Yes. You will learn basic colour theory as well as other visual tools artists use such as line, shape, focus, tone, texture and perspective.

  • I'm not very tech savvy. I'm not sure I can I learn online.

    Don't worry, after you sign up an introduction and short video tutorial will show you everything you need to know to set up your workspace, access the classroom and work your way through the lessons.

  • I can't draw. Will I be able to do the course?

    Don't worry, In Lesson 1 show you three methods of transferring your image from photo to canvas. You don't need to be able to draw in order to paint stunning seascapes.
