This painting tutorial shows how to paint a super full moon over the ocean in oils.
I painted this nocturne on 48x30 inches canvas in one sitting, wet on wet, it took me about 6 hours to complete not counting coffee breaks. This is mostly an imaginary scene partly based on my older seascape.
Here I offer an insight into my technique and share painting tips I taught myself over the years.
Hope you will find it useful or at least entertaining.
I used only four oil colors to create this night ocean painting:
titanium white, phthalo blue, indigo and cadmium yellow light.
I used mineral spirits l as a thinner, but any oil will do as well.
