Lesson No.20 - Adding Fine Detail to Water
I dabbed in the lighter dots and dashes first with a fine brush. In this way, I could see where the ripples were without getting too lost. I then added more colours, following my ripples and further breaking up areas with whatever colour was on my brush. As you paint this section, continually add some dots and dashes to previous areas of the canvas to keep the colour consistent.
