“helping me get over my fear of oil paints”

“everyone’s first attempt at oils — and we were all chuffed with our paintings”
— Carrie
Start by downloading the supplies list and gathering your materials.
Then follow the painting session step by step, pausing when you need.
It may look unusual in the middle stages - that’s part of the process. Stay with it.
By the end, you’ll have a finished painting and a clearer understanding of how to build light and depth in the sea.

You can order supplies from Amazon or source locally - use what you have where possible
When you've finished your painting, you're welcome to email me a photo - I'd love to see!
