Sure thing Miranda. I used several custom grunge brushes that I downloaded somewhere (can't recall where) to splash paint on the canvas (to use an analogy). I would decrease the brush size as I moved toward the edges of the wave to get the taper effect. Then I erased the bottoms portions of the grunge splats in an attempt to mimic the way a wave crests. On a separate layer set to 10% opacity I also used a fuzzy brush to paint a contour line along the crest of the waves. Not a whole lot to it really, it just takes a while to accomplish.

Thanks for the comments guys.
