The Simple Trick to Painting Waves in Watercolour
Waves can be tricky, but here’s a simple way to capture their movement and energy without overcomplicating things.
In this demo, I use just three colours — cobalt blue, phthalo green, and burnt sienna — to paint a quick impression of a flowing wave.
You’ll see how to:
Suggest foam and spray with simple brushwork
Use a limited palette for faster results
Create waves that feel alive without fussing over detail.
