Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

Welcome to your journey of painting the picturesque view of Stirling, Scotland. This artwork captures the vibrant and dynamic essence of the Scottish landscape, featuring the iconic Stirling Castle perched majestically atop a lush green hill. Below, a charming village with quaint rooftops nestles into the vibrant countryside, surrounded by bold, swirling trees painted in rich autumnal reds and oranges. The sky is a dramatic expanse of swirling clouds, adding movement and depth to the scene.

The colour palette is a harmonious blend of vivid greens, warm oranges, and cool blues, with highlights of earthy tones in the village and striking contrasts in the sky. The style is expressive and slightly abstract, capturing the essence and emotion of this historic Scottish location.

Setting Up the Canvas

Use the line drawing from the PDF to sketch the basic outline of the scene on your canvas. Begin with the large shapes like the hill, castle, and main village structures.
For those seeking greater accuracy, utilize the artists grid to help measure and match proportions more precisely.

Painting the Sky

Mix a variety of blues and whites to create a dynamic sky. Use broad, swirling strokes to mimic the movement of clouds.
Introduce hints of grey to add depth and contrast within the cloud formations.

Creating the Landscape

Underpaint the hill with a base of light and medium greens, allowing it to dry before adding darker green shadows for depth.
For Stirling Castle, use earthy browns and greys. Pay attention to the lighting and shadow to give it a three-dimensional appearance.
Paint the winding path leading up the hill using a mix of light browns and creams.

Detailing the Village

Begin with the rooftops, using cool blues and subtle purples to give dimension.
Add details to the building facades with careful lines, using lighter earth tones.
Paint windows and doors with precision, using darker shades to imply depth.

Adding Trees and Foreground

Mix a vibrant spectrum of oranges, reds, and yellows for the trees. Apply with dynamic brushstrokes to capture their lively nature.
For the ground, utilize a variety of greens and yellows to represent the lush grass and pathways.

Final Touches

Refine details with a detail brush, adding highlights and shadows where necessary to enhance depth.
Step back and observe the painting from a distance to ensure balance and harmony in color and composition.
Make any final adjustments to ensure your painting remains true to the lively and expressive essence of Stirling.
