Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Traigh Mhor captures the breathtaking beauty of the Scottish coastline at dawn. A dynamic interplay of colors, the sky transitions from deep indigo to bright, warm hues of pink and gold as the sun rises. The horizon is dominated by a silhouette of distant hills, adding depth and mystery. The foreground features abstract brushstrokes evocative of the sea meeting the white, sandy beach, with splashes of lavender and cobalt blue adding a modern artistic flair.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The line drawings and optional grid included in the Pack are your guides to maintaining composition accuracy. Use the grid to map out the main sections of the painting—sky, hills, and foreground—on your canvas. The line drawings will help you outline the defining silhouettes and major lines.

Step 1: Sketch the Outline

  1. Transfer the main outlines from the line drawing onto your canvas. Use the grid to help align the proportions accurately.
  2. Focus on the horizon line and the silhouette of the hills as key elements.

Step 2: Paint the Sky

  1. Mix indigo with a touch of cobalt blue for the deep sky near the top, applying it with a flat brush.
  2. Blend in lighter shades by gradually adding white and pink as you move downward towards the horizon.
  3. Add the warm glow of the sunrise with soft strokes of pink and gold where the sky meets the hills.

Step 3: Add the Hills

  1. Use a mixture of indigo and white to paint the silhouette of the hills, keeping it darker to create contrast against the sky.
  2. Emphasize the shape with bold yet smooth brushstrokes, adding hints of gold for subtle highlights.

Step 4: Create the Foreground

  1. Apply a base layer of white to mimic the sandy beach, allowing it to dry slightly before adding other colors.
  2. Introduce splashes of lavender and cobalt blue to suggest movement and texture, using an abstract approach with a round brush.
  3. Overlay thin lines of gold to enhance depth and interest.

Step 5: Final Touches

  1. Refine any areas needing stronger contrasts or highlights, such as deepening the cobalt blue in certain parts of the foreground.
  2. Blend any harsh lines for a smoother transition between elements of the painting.
  3. Step back to evaluate balance and make small adjustments as necessary.

With patience and attention to the dynamic shift of colors and abstract forms, you'll capture the spirit of Traigh Mhor, transforming it into a personal work of art.
