Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

Experience the serene beauty of Isleornsay Harbour captured in a minimalist style that blends abstraction with a soft color palette. The painting portrays the calm waters of the harbor, gently reflecting the tranquil sky. A subtle, pale sun casts its light over the serene blues and greys, creating an atmosphere of peace and introspection. The clean lines and geometric balance give the composition a modern touch, inviting viewers to lose themselves in its quiet simplicity.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas or paper
  • Acrylic or oil paints
  • Brushes: flat and round
  • Pencil for sketching
  • Palette for mixing colors
  • Source painting image from your Paint-Your-Own Pack
  • Line drawings and grid from the pack
  • Colour wheel from the pack

Step 1: Prepare Your Canvas

Using the provided grid in your Paint-Your-Own Pack, lightly sketch the basic outlines with a pencil. Focus on arranging the horizontal lines to separate the sky, water, and land, aligning with the geometric elements of the painting. This grid will help maintain composition accuracy.

Step 2: Painting the Sky

  1. Mix Colors: Refer to the color wheel to mix pale blue and white to achieve the soft hue of the sky.
  2. Apply: Use a flat brush to layer the sky color on the top section of the canvas, applying in smooth, even strokes.
  3. Blending: Gently blend with more white to create a gradient effect towards the horizon.

Step 3: Creating the Water

  1. Base Color: Mix a deeper blue with a hint of grey for the water and apply with a flat brush beneath the horizon line.
  2. Reflection: Add subtle horizontal strokes of lighter shades to mimic the reflective quality of water.

Step 4: Adding the Land

  1. Dark Tone: Mix a darker blue-grey for the distant landmass.
  2. Paint: Use a round brush to define the land's silhouette, following the contours outlined in your sketch.

Step 5: Detailing the Sun

  1. Shape: Paint the sun using pure white applied with a round brush.
  2. Position: Reference the placement on your line drawing to get the right proportions.

Step 6: Final Touches and Geometry

  1. Geometric Lines: Use a fine brush with thinned paint to carefully draw the vertical and horizontal lines represented in the composition.
  2. Re-evaluate: Step back and adjust any areas as needed for a harmonious blend.

Step 7: Let It Dry

Allow your painting to dry completely in a safe, dust-free area.
