  • Brushes: broad flat brush, medium round brush, fine detail brush

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The line drawings and grid included in your Paint-Your-Own Pack will help you accurately transfer the composition to your canvas. Use the grid to achieve precise proportions and ensure the elements align correctly.

Step 1: Sketch the Basic Composition

  1. Place the grid over the line drawing.
  2. On your canvas, lightly sketch the sand patterns, shoreline, and islands using a pencil. Rely on the grid to help replicate the positions and angles accurately.

Step 2: Paint the Sky

  1. Mix a light blue using white and a hint of ultramarine blue.
  2. With a broad flat brush, cover the top portion of the canvas to create the sky, gradually introduce a deeper blue as you move upwards to enhance depth.

Step 3: Create the Sea

  1. Blend turquoise and ultramarine blues for the sea.
  2. Use a medium round brush to apply the paint, working in horizontal strokes to mimic the water's calmness.
  3. Introduce a darker shade towards the horizon to add depth.

Step 4: Render the Sand Patterns

  1. Mix a light cream by combining white with a touch of brown.
  2. Using the medium round brush, paint the sand dunes, following the gently curving lines you sketched.
  3. Add subtle shading to create the illusion of texture and depth.

Step 5: Detail the Islands

  1. Prepare a mix of light and dark browns for the distant islands.
  2. With the fine detail brush, paint the island shapes, using the grid to maintain placement accuracy.
  3. Enhance with subtle shading for realism.

Step 6: Final Touches

  1. Review the painting, adjusting colors and shading as needed for harmony.
  2. Use the fine detail brush to refine edges and add highlights to enhance the scene's vibrancy.

By following these steps and utilizing the included tools, you'll beautifully recreate the tranquil ambiance of Arisaig Beach. Enjoy the meditative process of bringing this serene landscape to life on your canvas.
