Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The provided line drawings and optional grid can be used to outline the composition on your canvas accurately. If you're using the grid, scale it to match your canvas size for precise placement of key features. Alternatively, you can use the line drawing as a tracing guide.

Painting Process

  1. Sketch the Outline:
    • Begin by lightly sketching the main elements of the scene using the line drawing or grid as guidance.
    • Focus on the horizon line, rock formations, and key wave patterns.
  2. Underpaint the Background:
    • Start with the sky, applying a wash of soft pink and peach hues. Gradually incorporate purples as you move downward to the horizon.
    • Use broad, even strokes for a smooth transition of colors.
  3. Add the Water and Sand Reflections:
    • Mix light purples and pinks to create the wet sand reflections. Apply these colors with fluid, curved strokes that mimic the gentle ripples in the sand.
    • Blend areas with a soft brush to achieve a natural, reflective look.
  4. Paint the Rocks and Foreground:
    • Switch to darker shades of brown and deep red to define the rocky areas. Focus on the interplay of light and shadow to give depth.
    • Highlight the edges of the rocks where they catch the light with lighter tones, adding dimension to the forms.
  5. Capture the Water's Edge:
    • Use blues and greens to represent the gentle waves lapping against the shoreline.
    • Add highlights of white along the crest of the waves to suggest movement and light.
  6. Final Touches:
    • Revisit any areas needing additional detail or color correction.
    • Soften any harsh lines and blend colors to maintain a tranquil visage.
    • Step back and ensure the overall composition feels balanced and harmonious.

With each brushstroke, aim to capture the serene beauty and ambient light of Gullane Beach, allowing the interplay of colors and smooth lines to evoke a sense of peacefulness and wonder.
