Canadian Landscape. Prince Edward Island. Intermediate. Lesson 2. Lighthouse.

In this lesson you will learn how to paint the beautifully seascape scene, creating the sense of freshness of the ocean breeze on a sunny day.

You will study the characteristics of watercolour paints with granulation effect and you will learn how to use them by practicing painting the stones.
