In addition to what the other commenter said, you can go in with some more opaque white afterwards for sea foam/reflection detail
Thank you. I used the cakes, which are not as opaque for whites as I expected. I’ll try the tubes.
You might also want to try a paint pen to get fine lines
I have those. I’ll try that thanks
I know that although most things lose colour strength as they get further away, the ocean is usually different.
So you could do darker water further from shore. Lighter closer to shore.
