Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

This painting beautifully captures the serene and picturesque environment of Lerwick, Scotland. The scene is bathed in a harmonious palette of deep teal and vibrant orange, contrasting the rugged stone buildings against the tranquil sea. The abstract representation of the landscape, with its geometric shapes and bold lines, exudes a modern artistic style, while still maintaining the essence of the coastal town. Viewers are invited to explore the interaction between the natural landforms and man-made structures, all highlighted by dynamic color choices that evoke both the calmness of the sea and the vibrancy of life by the water.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

1. Preparing Your Canvas

  • Use the provided grid template or line drawing to lightly sketch the composition onto your canvas.
  • This will help ensure correct proportions and placement of key elements.

2. Establishing the Background

  1. Mix deep teal from your color wheel to paint the sky and sea. Use a wide brush for a smooth application.
  2. Blend gently at the horizon line to suggest the meeting of sky and earth.

3. Painting the Foreground Buildings

  1. Use a bright orange for the roofs, applying it boldly with a flat brush to mimic the geometric style.
  2. Utilize cream and white for the building walls, allowing some visible brush strokes to add texture.
  3. Apply slight shading with a mix of gray and white for dimension.

4. Detailing the Landscape

  1. Mix greens and browns to paint the grassy areas and stone formations, using a smaller brush for detail.
  2. Pay attention to the abstract patterns and lines within the rock surfaces for a modern touch.

5. Adding Final Details

  1. Use a fine brush to add lines and contours to emphasize abstract elements and direct the viewer’s eye.
  2. Highlight any reflections or additional textures in the sea with lighter shades of teal.

6. Refining and Finishing

  • Take a step back to evaluate the balance of colors and shapes.
  • Make any necessary adjustments to ensure harmony throughout the painting.
  • Sign your artwork once you are satisfied with the result.
