Using the Provided Line Drawings and Grid

The included line drawings and optional grid overlay will assist you in accurately capturing the proportions and composition of the artwork. Begin by lightly sketching the outline using pencil on your canvas. Use the grid to ensure placement and size are consistent with the original scene.

Step 1: SKY

Start by painting the sky. Mix deep blues and grays to replicate the dramatic cloud formations, adding softer whites for highlights.
Use a medium brush to blend colors smoothly, creating a sense of depth and movement in the clouds.

Step 2: HORIZON and SEA

Below the sky, paint the horizon line. Use a deep, muted blue for the distant sea view.
Apply gentle brush strokes to create the appearance of waves, while maintaining the painting's serene ambiance.

Step 3: SAND and GRASSES

Mix warm ochres and siennas to capture the sandy beach. Apply these tones using broad strokes, focusing on the play of light and shadow.
Introduce darker shades to define areas where the plants are rooted, creating depth and texture.
Use a fine brush to detail the grasses in the foreground. Pay attention to their graceful curves and how they bend with the wind.

Step 4: FENCES and FOREFRONT ELEMENTS

Utilize dark browns to paint the wooden fences. Apply these with confident, bold strokes to deliver a sense of structure and realism.
Fine-tune the smaller front details with a fine brush, highlighting the delicate and intricate elements of the vegetation.

Step 5: FINAL TOUCHES

Review the painting as a whole, ensuring cohesive color transitions and a balanced composition.
Add highlights or shadows where necessary to enhance the dramatic lighting.
Allow the painting to dry completely before displaying.

By following these detailed instructions and utilizing the provided resources in the Paint-Your-Own Pack, you will achieve a faithful recreation of the captivating West Sands scene. Enjoy the process of bringing this enchanting landscape to life with your own brushstrokes.
