I'm working on learning to paint ocean scenes. I find it to be difficult to pick out the shapes and colors for a realistic look.

Oceans are tricky! I have a couple of pieces that I started a long time ago but never finished because of the sea and not getting the water right. I think you have to either go stylised or for realistic look, be brave with contrast. The palette knife is useful for flicks and splashes but create the overall form first before thinking about the details.
