Give your wave paintings a "wow" factor so that friends, family and buyers will want to dive right in.

Level up your painting skills, brush up on your techniques or rekindle an old painting passion. This course has been designed with the acrylic painter in mind but can just as easily be completed in oils

This course is perfect for you if:

  • You have some painting experience but are looking for a new challenge

  • You like to paint in a more free-flowing, intuitive style but still want to achieve a realistic look

  • You don't have the patience for complicated drawings

  • You have already completed my Paint Stunning Seascapes in Acrylics course and want to expand on your knowledge and skills

Clear Water Wave Paintings are possible

when you master techniques like:

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

  • Painting in a free-flowing style building on the patterns of nature

  • Mixing colours and tones right on the canvas

Wicked Wave Paintings are Waiting For You

Start at any time, work at your own pace and return to the lessons many times as you like

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.

I have previously done a ocean painting course online and also used You Tube for techniques and tips for learning. I can honestly say that the Wicked wave course was value for money as the information included in the course is plentiful, educational and valuable for future paintings. The instructions and information are clear and easy to follow. Definitely a five star rating for me.

The wicked wave workshop was hard for me, perhaps because I have not been painting long. I learned a lot from this course, and not just painting styles, reflection vs refraction, use of negative space, making white look even whiter and so much more. Well worth taking.

Course Creator Jenny Buchanan

Jenny has been working as an artist since 1996. In that time she has won awards, participated in gallery exhibitions and had artworks selected for public display. As an art teacher, Jenny has held in-person classes in acrylics, watercolour and pastels. In her words: “Since launching Blue Beach House Art School in March 2020, I have come to realise that my true gift, as an artist, is being able to communicate everything about painting in a clear and easy-to-understand way, through video lessons. Getting great results for students is about much more than just filming a painting. Demonstrating the process, without being there in person, requires excellent communication skills. That is why I explain both the how and the why of everything, in great detail, both on video and in writing. My teaching style is pretty much straight to the point, very rarely veering off the subject at hand. You won’t hear about what the dog is doing or how clever the grandchildren are (even though they are, of course). It is really all about the painting and about your success as an artist. Art is very personal and sharing your work can feel like you have stepped out onto a large stage. I always offer supportive and constructive (but honest) feedback on your work but only if and when you ask for it. The thing to remember, though, is that if you aren’t brave enough put yourself out there, you will never know how great you can be.”
