Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Nairn Beach in Scotland captures the serene beauty of a coastal sunset. The sky is alive with vibrant oranges and soft pinks, contrasting elegantly with the deep blues of the sea. A large white sun descends toward the horizon, its reflection dancing across the rippling water. Gentle hues of purple and green add depth to the beach and distant hills, while seagulls glide overhead, adding a sense of freedom and movement. The entire scene is brought to life with bold, expressive brushstrokes, evoking a sense of tranquility and timelessness.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Canvas or painting surface
Brushes: flat, round, and detail brushes
Acrylic or oil paints (as provided in color palette)
Palette knife (optional)
Pencil (for initial sketching)
Palette and water cup
Rag or paper towels

Step 1: Preparing the Canvas

Start by lightly sketching the main outlines of the composition using the provided line drawings as a guide. Use a grid if needed to ensure accuracy in proportion and placement.

Step 2: Background and Sky

Mix orange and pink to capture the vibrant sunset sky. Use sweeping horizontal strokes to apply the paint across the upper section of the canvas.
Blend in some purples and blue tones at the top corners, transitioning smoothly to the warmer tones below.
Define the large sun with white using a round brush, allowing gentle blending around its edges.

Step 3: Painting the Sea

Use deep blues and a touch of green to create the ocean. Apply horizontal strokes to mimic the natural flow of the water.
Add highlights with a mix of white and light blue to form the reflection of the sunlight.
Create gentle ripples by using a smaller brush with darker blue and light touches of white.

Step 4: The Beach

Paint the sandy beach using lighter purples and pinks, experimenting with texture by using a palette knife if desired.
Introduce subtle reflections with traces of the sky colors on the sand for realism.

Step 5: Distant Landscape and Details

Incorporate darker greens and purples to paint the distant hills, ensuring they blend well into the horizon.
Use a detail brush to add the seagulls and other fine details, such as distant cloud edges.

Step 6: Final Touches

Revisit the contrast between sea and sky, enhancing any areas that need more definition or color intensity.
Allow the painting to dry completely before adding any final touches or varnish if desired.

Use the color wheel to ensure your color mixes stay true to the original palette. Refer to sketches and grids to maintain composition accuracy. Enjoy bringing the serene beauty of Nairn Beach to life in your own style!
