Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

Bonaloch Falls in Scotland captures the serene beauty of cascading waters amidst a lush, verdant forest. The painting showcases a tranquil stream tumbling over rocks, surrounded by towering trees and a quaint cottage peeking behind the foliage. The color palette enchants with cool blues and greens, complemented by earthy browns and gentle grey tones. The brushstrokes convey a harmonious blend of movement and stillness, embodying a style that marries realism with a slightly impressionistic touch.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Paint-Your-Own Pack (includes line drawings, sketches, and grid options)
  • Acrylic or oil paints
  • Brushes (variety of sizes: fine, medium, and large)
  • Palette for mixing colors
  • Canvas or painting surface
  • Clean water (for acrylics) and palette knife (optional for mixing)

Preparation

Start by choosing the line drawing or grid version from your Paint-Your-Own Pack. Secure your canvas and transfer the basic outlines. The grid can assist in maintaining accurate proportions.

Step 1: Background and Sky

  1. Mix a pale blue and white for the sky. Use a large brush to apply in broad, sweeping strokes.
  2. Introduce hints of green at the treetops closest to the sky to blend the background seamlessly.

Step 2: Trees and Foliage

  1. For the tall trees, mix dark green with a touch of brown for the trunks and branches.
  2. For leaves, use varied greens, ranging from light to dark, to create depth and texture. Use medium-sized brushes for general foliage and finer brushes for details.
  3. Apply the colors to the leaf clusters in dense patches to build a lush look. Emphasize areas with more sunlight with lighter greens.

Step 3: The Cottage

  1. Use light greys and off-whites for the cottage walls and darker grey for the roof.
  2. Paint small details like the windows and door with fine brushes, using black or dark brown for outlines.

Step 4: Waterfall and Stream

  1. Layer white mixed with a hint of blue for the cascading water. Use downward strokes to mimic the flow.
  2. For the deeper parts of the stream, use a deeper blue and gradually blend with white as the water falls over the rocks.

Step 5: Rocks and Ground

  1. Blend greys, browns, and muted greens for the rocks and apply with a medium brush, paying attention to natural shadows and highlights.
  2. Use a palette knife for more texture if desired, scraping along edges for more defined lines.

Step 6: Final Touches

  1. Add details and textures, such as highlights on the water with pure white and extra shadow under overhanging rocks and foliage.
  2. Check overall balance and color harmony, making adjustments as necessary.

Using the Colour Wheel

Refer to the included color wheel for guidance on mixing paints to achieve harmonious color relationships and tonality in your painting.

Enjoy the soothing process of painting the enchanting Bonaloch Falls and capturing the serene spirit of the Scottish landscape.
