Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Shetland, Scotland, captures the striking beauty of the island with its robust cliffs, gentle slopes, and serene coastal waters. The composition showcases the dramatic juxtaposition of vibrant orange and green hills against the deep blues of the sea and sky. The soft pastel hues in the clouds add a dreamlike quality, encapsulating the essence of a tranquil yet dynamic landscape. The artistic style is impressionistic, characterized by bold colors and expressive brushwork, conveying the ever-changing light and weather of the region.

Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Canvas or painting paper
Acrylic or oil paints (using the color palette provided)
Brushes (flat, round, and detail brushes)
Pallet knife (optional for textures)
Palette for mixing colors
Water cup (for acrylics) or solvent (for oils)
Rags or paper towels

Step 1: Preparation

Position your canvas or paper and gather your materials.
Review the line drawings provided in the Paint-Your-Own Pack.
If using the artist’s grid, lightly draw the grid onto your canvas using a pencil to assist with composition accuracy.

Step 2: Sketch the Composition

Use the line drawing as a guide to sketch the basic outline of the landscape onto your canvas.
Ensure the buildings and cliffs are accurately placed within the composition. The optional artist’s grid is useful here to scale the elements correctly.
Take care to outline the horizon and key features like cliffs and waves.

Step 3: Block in the Main Colors

Refer to the color wheel to mix the primary colors for the sky, sea, and land.
Start with the background: paint the sky using pastel hues of orange and purple with soft transitions.
Move to the sea: use a range of blues and greens. Focus on the lighter colors closer to the shore to create depth.
Block in the land with vibrant oranges and greens, carefully considering light and shadow.

Step 4: Add Details and Texture

Use a smaller brush to add details to the buildings and cliffs.
Introduce texture to the cliffs and grass. Use a palette knife if desired for rugged surfaces.
Pay attention to highlights and shadows, enhancing the three-dimensional aspect of the terrain.

Step 5: Final Touches

Enhance the cloud texture and add any finer details to the water and shore.
Step back to view your painting. Adjust colors and shadows to bring the composition together.
Let the painting dry completely (time varies for acrylics and oils).

Congratulations on completing your painting of Shetland, capturing the vibrant essence and beauty of this dramatic landscape!
