  • Brushes – flat, round, and detail sizes
  • Canvas or painting board
  • Pencil for sketching

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Preparation: Secure your canvas and arrange your paints according to the provided colour wheel. Review the main image, line drawings, and optional grid for guidance on composition.
  2. Outline the Composition:

    Use the line drawings to lightly sketch the main elements: the horizon line, position of houses, boats, and the prominent rooftops.

    If using the grid, align the grid lines on your canvas with those in the pack to ensure accurate proportions.

  3. Paint the Background:
    • Mix warm hues for the sunset sky – use a blend of oranges, yellows, and soft pinks. Apply with broad strokes for a smooth transition.
    • Add depth by varying the intensity and blending where the sky meets the horizon.
  4. Add the Buildings:
    • Paint the buildings' facades using the vibrant color palette provided, focusing on yellows, reds, and greens. Use flat brushes for precision.
    • Define shadowed areas with darker tones to provide contrast and depth.
  5. Create the Water Reflection:
    • Use horizontal strokes to mimic the reflections of houses and sky on the water’s surface.
    • Blend the reflected colors with soft edges to mimic rippling effect.
  6. Detail the Boats:
    • Focus on the boats in the foreground, using dark colors for the hulls and masts, ensuring they stand out against the reflection.
    • Add subtle highlights where sunlight touches the hulls.
  7. Final Touches:
    • Revisit the sky and water, adding any missed highlights or fixing blending inconsistencies.
    • Check the overall balance and adjust intensity to ensure a harmonious piece.

Enjoy the process of creating your personalized artwork of Whitehills Harbour, capturing the peaceful yet dynamic beauty of a vibrant coastal sunset.
