Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Glen Tanar captures the serene beauty of the Scottish landscape with its rolling hills and vast plains. A muted color palette of gentle greens, soft pinks, and earthy browns blends harmoniously, punctuated by dark silhouettes of trees and the sweeping outline of distant hills. The composition has a minimalist and modern feel, creating a sense of tranquility and open space. The brushwork is subtle, with smooth gradations and well-defined lines that guide the viewer's eye through the landscape.

  • Acrylic or oil paints
  • Brushes (flat and round)
  • Canvas or watercolor paper
  • Palette for mixing colors

Setting Up Your Workspace

  1. Select a well-lit area with enough space for your canvas and tools.
  2. Print the line drawing and grid provided in the Paint-Your-Own Pack.
  3. Use the grid method to outline the major shapes on your canvas.

Painting Instructions

Step 1: Background and Sky

  1. Mix Light Cream: Use white with a touch of yellow ochre for the sky. Apply with a flat brush for a smooth finish.
  2. Gradually darken the top of the sky with a hint of blue for depth.

Step 2: Distant Hills and Trees

  1. Dark Blue-Grey for Distant Hills: Mix cerulean blue with black. Paint the outline of the prominent hill.
  2. Use a fine brush to paint the trees as soft, dark silhouettes against the hills. Use a dark green mixed with black.

Step 3: Midground Fields

  1. Golden Yellow Fields: Combine yellow ochre with white and a touch of brown. Fill in the fields, allowing gentle strokes to suggest texture.
  2. Create subtle variations by adding more yellow ochre to parts of the field to imply sunlight.

Step 4: Foreground and Trees

  1. Muted Green Plains: Mix sap green with white to create a soft, muted background for the lower fields.
  2. For the trees, start with a middle green tone and layer with hints of brown and black for depth. Use small, precise strokes.

Step 5: Final Touches and Details

  1. Fine Details and Shadows: Add shadows using a diluted mix of black and brown. Focus on tree trunks and field divisions.
  2. Refine the horizons and field edges for crispness, using a flat brush to enhance outlines.
  3. Check Reference Image: Frequently compare with the source image to ensure accuracy.

Tips for Using Line Drawings and Grid

  • Grid Method: Use the grid provided to help position elements accurately on the canvas. Match each section's details to keep proportions correct.
  • Line Drawings: Follow the line drawings to guide initial placement of major shapes before painting.
  • Sketchings: Use the sketches to refine your lines and correct any proportions before applying paint.

By following these steps and using the resources provided in the Paint-Your-Own Pack, you will successfully recreate the tranquil and harmonious beauty of Glen Tanar in Scotland.
