Gouache seascapes
Painting the sea with gouache
I'll show three different seascapes, step by step. You can either follow them all, or pick one or two. First one is a quiet sea on the beach, we'll see how to paint the sand and sky with gradients, mimic the reflections of light on the sea.
Second one is moving water on rocks. We'll see how to paint the light in the wave, mix accurate colors, render the rocks, and have fun with the crushing water!
Last one has a loose style, almost abstract, to render the vortex and movement. We'll see how to paint loose.

Hi, I’m Cécile, a French artist who loves color, mixed media, and gouache.
Art should bring joy, not stress. That’s why I create playful, step-by-step tutorials that help beginners explore, experiment, and fill their sketchbooks with confidence.
Over the past six years, more than 25,000 students have joined my courses and discovered that you don’t need to know all the rules to start creating. With the supplies you already have and a spirit of curiosity, you can express yourself and enjoy the process.
My mission is to help you grow as an artist while having fun along the way.
