Live | Acrylic Tutorial on Retouching an Old Painting | Tropical Rocky Beach | JMLisondra

Welcome back to the studio! Join me LIVE on the easel for an interactive, step-by-step masterclass where we will be retouching and completely upgrading an old, flat beach painting into a stunning “Tropical Rocky Beach”.

We all have old canvases stored away that feel incomplete, dull, or lacking depth. In this live stream, I am bringing out an older tropical seascape to show you how to analyze what isn’t working and fix it live. Watch in real time as we adjust color values, brighten tropical turquoise waters, and use bold brushwork and palette knife techniques to construct rugged, sunlit coastal rocks directly over dry layers.

Because this is a live, real-time tutorial, you will see every step, color mix, and correction as it happens. Grab your paints, bring your questions to the live chat, and let’s turn an old artwork into a dynamic coastal masterpiece!

In this live retouching masterclass, we will cover:

Analyzing the Old Artwork: Identifying weak focal points, dull colors, or flat areas that need dynamic contrast.

Vibrant Tropical Waters: How to glaze and layer vivid turquoises, aquas, and deep blues over existing paint without creating a muddy mix.

Sculpting Rocky Shorelines: Using stiff brushes and palette knife techniques to paint craggy, wet boulders, complete with deep shadows and sun-dappled highlights.

Seafoam & Wave Dynamics: Techniques for painting translucent wave edges and delicate foam washing over coastal rocks.

Live Chat Q&A: Answering your real-time questions about salvaging old canvases, acrylic drying times, and color mixing!
