Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

Imagine standing at the brink of Glencoe on a crisp, vibrant evening. The sun is a bold orb hanging in an electrifying orange sky, its intense hues casting warm tones over the rugged mountains. The foreground is a tapestry of abstract reflections, where color and form meld in a captivating play of light. The painting captures the moment with vivid, dynamic strokes that convey the wild beauty of the Scottish Highlands. A palette of fiery reds, deep blacks, and subtle pinks dominates, with an expressive style that exudes both serenity and drama.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas (size of your choice)
  • Acrylic paints (using the provided colour palette)
  • Brushes (various sizes)
  • Palette
  • Cups of water
  • Paper towels
  • Pencil for sketching (optional)

Step 1: Prepare Your Canvas

Begin by setting up your workspace. Ensure your canvas is primed and dry. If using a grid, lightly sketch the grid onto your canvas with a pencil using the optional artist grid from your pack. This will help with accurate composition.

Step 2: Sketch the Basic Outline

Using the line drawing included in your pack, lightly sketch the outline of the mountains and sun on your canvas. Focus on capturing the basic shapes and lines visible in the line drawing.

Step 3: Paint the Sky

  1. Begin with the vibrant orange sky. Using a large brush, apply the orange, leaving a circular space for the sun.
  2. Blend in lighter shades of pink toward the horizon to create a gradient effect.
  3. Let this layer dry slightly before proceeding to avoid blending with later layers.

Step 4: Create the Sun

Fill in the sun using a creamy white or light yellow. Ensure it stands out against the bold sky, maintaining its round shape.

Step 5: Paint the Mountains

  1. Start with the largest mountain range in the middle, using reds and subtle blacks to capture shadow and depth.
  2. Use the color wheel to mix variations of red and black for realistic shading and highlights.
  3. Paint the distant mountains with lighter tones and less detail to suggest distance.
  4. Keep brush strokes expressive and lively to align with the painting’s style.

Step 6: Add Foreground Reflections

  1. With a medium brush, use dark blacks to capture bold shadows in the foreground.
  2. Incorporate streaks of orange and red to reflect the sky above. Allow colors to mix slightly for a natural transition.

Step 7: Finishing Touches

  1. Contrast adjustments: Deepen shadows or brighten highlights where needed to accentuate the painting’s drama.
  2. Clean up the edges of the sun and mountains for clarity.
  3. Step back from your painting periodically to ensure balance and composition are maintained.

Step 8: Seal Your Painting

Once completely dry, apply a clear acrylic sealer to protect your artwork and enhance its colors.

Remember to use the reference image and sketches included in your Paint-Your-Own Pack for guidance. Enjoy the process and embrace your creative interpretation of this stunning Scottish landscape!
