Downloadable Seashell PDF Painting Tutorial, Learn to Paint Realistic Detail Using Watercolour

Shells found on the beach, and commonly just called seashells, are the hard, protective layer created by an animal living in the sea. The shells are usually made of calcium carbonate, and wash up on beaches once the animal dies and decomposes, or is eaten by something else.

This is a fun project to work on with all the sand, and would be suitable for beginners too. We go through applying a wash, splattering, stippling and finally painting fine detail. You could even use the skills you have learnt to paint a range of different shells on a beach.

This is an instant PDF download, you could start work on this shell in a matter of minutes. You don’t even need to wait for the post to arrive! You will receive a 27-page PDF document. Set out in the same way as the tutorials I write for magazines. However, you get lots more large photos of the different stages.

Downloadable lessons enable you to work at your own speed, you can dip in and out of the content, you can spend time studying the fine details and practise the various techniques as often as you like.

Have fun with this lesson, take your time and let me know how you get on. Try printing off the last few pages which have the larger versions of the step-by-step photos for additional help.
