Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of the Isle of Raasay captivates with its serene depiction of the Scottish landscape enveloped in a gentle mist. Soft, muted tones of blue and grey dominate the scene, capturing the island’s tranquil atmosphere. The composition harnesses geometric elements, blending rectangles with the natural contours of the mountains and the reflective water below. A modern yet timeless style emerges, striking a balance between abstraction and realism, which invites both the mind and the eye to wander.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Acrylic or oil paints in muted blues, greys, and whites
  • Brushes of various sizes, including flat brushes for large areas and fine brushes for details
  • Canvas or thick paper
  • Palette for mixing colors
  • Water or medium for paint dilution (depending on the type of paint)
  • Painter's tape for clean lines

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The provided line drawings and grid can be taped onto your canvas as a reference. They will guide you in placing elements accurately.

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Canvas:
    • Tape the line drawing onto your canvas or transfer the outline using the grid as a guide.
  2. Paint the Sky:
    • Mix a very light grey with a hint of blue and cover the top half of your canvas. This creates a soft, moody backdrop.
    • Keep your brushstrokes smooth and horizontal.
  3. Establish the Horizons:
    • Use painter’s tape to create a straight horizon line where the mountains and sky meet.
    • Mix a darker grey-blue for the far-off mountain range and fill the area just below the horizon line.
    • For the closer mountains, apply a slightly deeper shade to give depth.
  4. Create the Reflection:
    • Below the mountains, lightly brush the same colors downwards to create a reflection on the water.
    • Add linear strokes to simulate gentle ripples.
  5. Add Geometric Elements:
    • Refer to the line drawing to position rectangles.
    • Tape straight lines to ensure clean edges and fill these areas with muted blues and greys.
  6. Finalize Details:
    • Refine the meeting points between geometric shapes and natural forms.
    • Check and adjust the intensity of shadows and highlights.
  7. Add Final Touches:
    • Remove any tape carefully.
    • Let your painting dry, evaluate, and make any minor adjustments if necessary.

By combining the structured outlines with your personal painting style, this guide will help you capture the essence of the Isle of Raasay, blending natural beauty with geometric elegance.
