Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

A captivating depiction of Aviemore in Scotland, this painting beautifully captures the serene and majestic presence of towering pine trees against a vibrant blue sky. The dynamic interplay of light and shadow on the richly textured bark creates a sense of depth and movement, while the lush greenery of the surrounding forest brings vitality and contrast. The palette features a harmonious blend of earthy browns, deep greens, and bright sky blue, all coming together in a contemporary impressionistic style that invites viewers to feel the essence of nature's beauty.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Acrylic paints (colors as per the provided color wheel)
  • Brushes of varying sizes (flat, round, and detail)
  • Canvas or watercolor paper
  • Palette knife
  • Water jar for cleaning brushes
  • Rag or paper towel

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The provided line drawings and grids are designed to help you maintain accuracy in composition. Sketch lightly with a pencil to mark the positions of key elements like the main tree trunk and background trees. Use the grid as a reference for aligning these elements.

Painting Steps

  1. Background Sky:
    1. Begin with a wash of blue, covering the entire sky area.
    2. Blend in lighter tones towards the horizon to give a realistic sky gradient.
  2. Main Tree Trunk:
    1. Mix a vibrant orange-brown for the trunk.
    2. Using a palette knife, apply the paint in bold, vertical strokes to mimic the texture of the bark.
  3. Foliage:
    1. Utilize greens from the palette, mixing dark and light shades.
    2. Apply with a flat brush, dabbing to create a leaf-like texture, focusing on the larger pine branches.
  4. Forest Background:
    1. Paint the distant trees in muted greens to suggest depth.
    2. Use a smaller brush for the finer details of the tree tops.
  5. Foreground:
    1. Add yellows and greens to depict grass and forest floor textures.
    2. Use short, quick strokes to create the effect of grass and underbrush.
  6. Details and Finishing Touches:
    1. Enhance shadows and highlights on the tree trunk using darker browns and yellows.
    2. Add final details with a fine brush, emphasizing key lines and textures observed in the original image.
