Painting Instructions

  1. Initial Sketch:

    Begin by lightly sketching the outlines of the main elements using the provided line drawing as a guide. Focus on the hills, shoreline, and wildflowers.

  2. Background and Sky:
    • Mix a pale blue with white for the sky. Use a flat brush to cover the upper section with horizontal strokes.
    • Blend in some pink near the horizon, creating a soft transition.
  3. Distant Hills:
    • Mix blue with a hint of green for the hills. Use a slightly darker tone to paint the hills in the background.
    • Create gentle, sweeping lines to mimic the natural contours.
  4. Water and Shoreline:
    • Use a mix of light blue and white to convey the calm waters.
    • Introduce streaks of darker blue and green to suggest reflections and subtle waves.
    • Apply pink tones along the shoreline for depth.
  5. Wildflowers:
    • Begin with the petals using vibrant yellows and oranges. Utilize broad strokes to capture the dynamic shapes.
    • Lay down hints of green for the stems and leaves, keeping the brushstrokes loose and spontaneous.
  6. Final Touches:
    • Add details such as the centers of the flowers and small accents in the flora to enhance realism.
    • Use a liner brush for fine lines if necessary.
