Begin by reviewing the line drawings included in the pack. Familiarize yourself with the composition and compare it to the grid version to understand the spatial relationships between elements.
Using a large flat brush, apply a mix of soft blues and whites to create the sky. Blend with long horizontal strokes to achieve a sense of airy movement.
With a medium flat brush, layer deep blues and purples to form the distant peaks. Use the grid version for accuracy. Add lighter tones on one side to suggest sunlight and shadow.
Switch to a bright green mixed with touches of yellow. Paint the rolling hills with swift, confident strokes. Incorporate varying shades of green to depict the lush grasses and undulating terrain.
Focus on the rocks and wildflowers in the foreground. Use a detail brush to enhance the vibrant reds and oranges of the flowers. Emphasize texture and highlight the dynamic flow of plant life.
Go back to the mountain section and add depth with a small brush. Enhance contrast by darkening shadows and refining edges as necessary, ensuring the scene is cohesive.
Add final highlights to the flowers and meadows using a fine brush for extra detail and vibrancy. Adjust any sections that need more definition or color variation.
