Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas or painting surface
  • Brushes: flat and round in varying sizes
  • Acrylic or oil paints in colors from the included palette
  • Palette for mixing colors
  • Water (for acrylics) or solvent (for oils)
  • Paper towels or cloth

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The line drawings provided in your pack help establish the basic outlines of the composition. The artist’s grid assists with accurate placement and proportions.

  1. Prepare Your Canvas: Lightly sketch the main outlines using the line drawings, or use the grid method for precise placement. Ensure the key elements, like trees and horizons, are correctly positioned.
  2. Block in the Background:
    • Start with a broad, flat brush.
    • Apply the deep blues and purples to create the forest backdrop.
    • Blend transitions smoothly to mimic the gradient effect in the sky.
  3. Establish the Midground:
    • Use a mix of greens and yellows for the forest floor and lower foliage.
    • Layer in the lighter tones, maintaining the flow and direction of the brushstrokes.
  4. Paint the Focal Tree:
    • Switch to a rounded brush for more precision.
    • Layer the fiery oranges and reds on the tree leaves, letting them glow against the darker hues.
    • Use darker tones for the tree trunk, highlighting its texture and shape.
  5. Add Highlights and Details:
    • Add whispers of lighter tones to illuminate sections of the trees and foreground.
    • Use fine brushes for twigs and smaller branches, noticing their organic, random placements.
  6. Final Touches:
    • Tweak the contrast by reinforcing shadows with deeper hues.
    • Blend any harsh edges to maintain the impressionistic style.
    • Stand back and evaluate the composition, making any necessary adjustments for balance.

Enjoy the process of painting the Anagach Woods, immersing yourself in its vibrant colors and dynamic forms. Allow your interpretation to capture the spirit of this enchanting Scottish landscape.
