Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

In this striking painting of Elie, the coastline of Scotland unfurls in a vibrant tapestry of color and form. The painting captures the essence of a coastal village with abstract strokes, blending soft pastels with bold accents. The warm hues of orange and ochre meet the cool blues and whites, reflecting the fresh, breezy environment and the interplay of sunlight over the water. The houses perched on the hilltop stand resilient against the vast, open seascape. The artist’s style is contemporary and abstract, shifting focus onto emotional impressions of the landscape rather than realistic depictions, encouraging viewers to engage with the vivid energy of Elie.

Step-By-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Canvas or canvas board
Acrylic paints (refer to the included color wheel for palette)
Brushes (a mix of broad, fine, and detail brushes)
Palette knife (optional for textured effects)
Water and palette for mixing
Line drawing or grid from the Paint-Your-Own Pack

Preparation

Setup: Prepare your workspace with the canvas, paints, and brushes within easy reach. Have a printout of the line drawing or grid from the pack nearby.
Line Drawing: If using the line drawing, lightly transfer the key outlines onto your canvas using a pencil or tracing paper.
Grid Method: Alternatively, use the grid method by drawing a matching grid onto your canvas and sketching the scene square by square for composition accuracy.

Painting Process

Sky and Background: Begin by painting the sky using soft blues and ochres, blending them gently across the upper portion. This should be a light wash to establish the background.
Coastal Structure: Define the shapes of the houses using whites and muted blue-grey tones. Use a fine brush for sharp edges and details.
Foreground Land: Introduce the vibrant orange and coral hues at the ground level. Use bold, sweeping strokes to capture the energy and texture of the land.
Water: Apply varying shades of blue to paint the water, integrating touches of white for wave highlights. Use a horizontal stroke to mimic the motion of water.
Details and Texture: Add details to the houses, such as windows and rooftops. Employ a palette knife or a broad brush for textured areas, creating a sense of depth and movement in the land and water.
Final Touches: Balance the painting by adding darker contrasts and fine detail lines, enhancing the abstract essence and energy of the scene.

Finishing Up

Allow your painting to dry completely. Step back and observe, making small adjustments where necessary to harmonize color and texture. Utilize the abstract style to bring a personal touch that captures Elie’s vibrant coastal life.
