Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preparing Your Canvas

Using the Grid: With your chosen canvas, lightly sketch the grid provided in the optional artists grid version. This assists in maintaining composition accuracy as you follow the steps.

  1. Start by applying a base coat of white or light grey to provide a smooth surface for your painting.
  2. Allow the background to dry before proceeding.

Step 2: Sketching the Landscape

Using the Line Drawings and Sketches: Use the line drawings provided to sketch the basic outline of the landscape onto your prepared canvas.

  • Focus on the main elements: mountains, lake, and foreground.
  • Ensure proportions match the guide using the grid.

Step 3: Painting the Sky and Mountains

  1. Start with the sky, blending light blue and white for a smooth gradient effect.
  2. Use the flat brush to apply layers of blue shades for the mountains, creating soft edges to mimic mist.
  3. Incorporate hints of yellow to reflect sunlight across the peaks.
  4. Allow this section to dry before moving forward.

Step 4: Painting the Water and Foreground

  1. Use a mix of blues and greens for the reflective water surface, gently incorporating horizontal strokes.
  2. For the foreground, layer vibrant yellows and greens, capturing the lush vegetation.
  3. Experiment with brush strokes to add texture and movement.

Step 5: Detailing the Structures and Trees

  1. Switch to a smaller detail brush and use darker tones to paint the small structures and trees in the distance.
  2. Add fine lines for rooftops and trunks, using a steady hand to capture small details.
  3. Apply highlights using lighter shades to give depth and dimension.

Step 6: Final Touches

  1. Step back and assess your painting, making any necessary adjustments to balance colour and detail.
  2. Add any final highlights or shadows to enhance the overall realism and depth of the image.

Step 7: Finishing Up

  • Allow your painting to dry completely.
  • Consider applying a varnish for protection and to enhance colour vibrancy.
