Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Lochnagar in Scotland presents a bold and contemporary interpretation of the landscape, characterized by vibrant colors and dynamic shapes. The warm tones of orange and pink contrast sharply with cool blues and greens, creating a vibrant interplay that draws the viewer's eye across the canvas. The prominent mountains are depicted in striking abstract forms, set against a serene sky. The contrasting elements and expressive brushwork capture both the grandeur and the tranquil beauty of Lochnagar.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Paint-Your-Own Pack (PDF)
  • Canvas or thick paper
  • Acrylic paints (refer to attached color palette)
  • Assorted brushes (flat, round, and detail)
  • Palette or plate for mixing paints
  • Cup of water for cleaning brushes
  • Paper towels or a cloth for cleaning

Preparation

  1. Review the Pack: Open your Paint-Your-Own Pack to get familiar with the original image, line drawings, and optional artist grid.
  2. Set Up Your Workspace: Ensure your canvas is ready, with paints and brushes easily accessible.
  3. Choose Your Approach: Decide if you will use the line drawing or grid method for composition accuracy.

Using the Line Drawing or Grid

The line drawing simplifies the composition into basic shapes, guiding your initial sketch on the canvas. Alternatively, the grid method helps maintain proportion and scale as you paint.

  1. Line Drawing: Lightly sketch the key shapes onto your canvas, following the outlines provided.
  2. Grid Method: Draw a light grid on your canvas to match the guide. Transfer shapes by matching each section of the grid.

Step 1: Background Sky and Base

  1. Sky: Mix light blue with a touch of white to create a soft base for the sky. Use a flat brush to fill in the upper portion of the canvas with broad, horizontal strokes.
  2. Underpainting: Lay down a thin wash of pink in areas where warm tones will dominate. This creates depth and vibrancy once final colors are applied.

Step 2: Mountains and Horizons

  1. Dark Mountain: Use deep blue with hints of green for the mountain on the left. Apply with bold, angular strokes for texture.
  2. Warm Mountain: Mix varied oranges and reds for the mountain on the right. Use dynamic strokes to reflect the mountain's energetic form.
  3. Horizon Line: With a fine brush, define the meeting point of mountains and sky using a combination of darker tones for contrast.

Step 3: Foreground and Details

  1. Fields: Layer yellows and greens, blending to show fields and pastures. Use horizontal strokes for an expansive feel.
  2. Water and Reflections: Introduce blues and turquoises at the lower part of the painting, using sweeping strokes for a fluid appearance.
  3. Final Details: Add fine lines and small details with a detail brush. Use contrasting darks and lights to highlight features such as rocks or vegetation.

Step 4: Final Touches

  1. Add Texture: Use a palette knife to scrape paint across the canvas in specific areas, adding texture and interest.
  2. Adjust Contrast: Evaluate the painting from a distance, adding deeper shadows or highlights as needed to enhance the dimensional quality.
  3. Review and Sign: Review your painting for balance and harmony. Once satisfied, sign your work in a corner.

Enjoy the creative process and your unique interpretation of this vibrant scene from Lochnagar!
