Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting "Silver Sands of Morar" beautifully captures the serene and surreal beauty of the Scottish coastline. The composition artfully juxtaposes the tranquil sands and the dynamic flow of the water, reflecting a vivid sunset sky. The painting features bold, abstract lines that convey movement and depth, while the soft merging of colors and the large, circular sun evoke a sense of calm and vastness. The rich palette includes warm oranges and yellows of the sky, contrasted by deep blues and greens of the hills and water, creating a harmonious and evocative landscape.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Acrylic paints (refer to the included color wheel)
  • Brushes (various sizes, including flat and round)
  • Canvas or painting paper
  • Pencil (for initial sketching)
  • Palette for mixing colors

Initial Sketching

  1. Place the line drawing or grid overlay from your pack onto your canvas.
  2. Using a light pencil, lightly trace the main outlines focusing on the curves and shapes of the hills, sky, and shoreline.
  3. Ensure the circular sun is positioned accurately according to the grid for balance.

Underpainting

  1. Begin with a thin wash of light orange to cover the sky and water areas.
  2. Use a soft blue or green to paint over the hill areas to establish the base tones.
  3. Allow the underpainting to dry completely before proceeding.

Painting the Sky

  1. Mix varying shades of orange, red, and yellow as shown on the color palette.
  2. Apply these colors using broad, sweeping strokes, beginning from the sun and extending outward.
  3. Blend slightly where the colors meet for a smooth transition, adding depth and drama.

Creating the Hills

  1. Using deeper blues and greens, layer the paint over the hill outlines.
  2. Add darker shades to suggest shadow and depth, particularly on the edges of hills.
  3. Use the grid to maintain the correct perspective and alignment.

Rendering the Water and Sands

  1. Switch to lighter blues and whites for the waves, using long, flowing brush strokes.
  2. Add highlights with touches of white to represent the reflection of light on water.
  3. Paint the sands using a gentle blending of ochre and off-white tones.
  4. Ensure to capture the swirling patterns visible in the original painting.

Details and Finishing Touches

  1. Add final highlights and reflections to enhance realism, particularly on water surfaces.
  2. Adjust any areas where the grid lines may have resulted in less accurate shapes.
  3. Evaluate the overall balance of color and make any necessary adjustments for composition harmony.
