Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

This vivid painting of Stob Dearg captures the rugged beauty and dramatic essence of the Scottish Highlands. The scene is dominated by the towering, angular peak of Stob Dearg, rendered in a striking array of purples and blues, contrasted against vibrant autumnal hues in the foreground. Rich reds, golds, and oranges in the foliage and ground cover add warmth, while the swirling blues and whites of the sky suggest movement and vitality. The artist utilizes bold, geometric shapes to emphasize the mountain's structure and the organic flow of the landscape, creating a dynamic and modern interpretation of a classic subject.

Preparation

Before starting, review all materials in your Paint-Your-Own Pack. Set up your workspace with adequate lighting and ensure your canvas is secure.

Using the Line Drawing and Grid

Refer to the line drawing and artist's grid included in your pack. The grid will help you accurately place key elements of the composition.

  1. Lightly sketch the grid onto your canvas using a pencil.
  2. Transfer the major lines of the composition from the line drawing onto your grid. This will help maintain accuracy and proportion.

Background and Sky

  1. Mix the Sky Colors: Start with blues, ranging from light to deep, for the sky. Refer to your color wheel for exact shades.
  2. Apply the Sky: Use a flat brush to paint the swirling sky, using broad, sweeping motions to achieve the soft cloud shapes and motion.
  3. Blend the Colors: Blend the blues and whites where they meet to achieve a dynamic, gradient effect.

Painting the Mountain

  1. Base Colors: Mix the base purples and pinks for Stob Dearg. Use a medium brush to build the mountain's base structure.
  2. Add Depth: Layer darker purples and blues strategically to create shadows and enhance the geometric shapes.
  3. Highlight: Apply lighter tones along the mountain's ridges and peaks to add definition.

Foreground and Trees

  1. Create the Ground Tones: Mix warm earth tones from your palette. Use a large flat brush to apply the base colors to the ground.
  2. Details and Texture: Use smaller brushes to add details such as rocks and foliage. Employ darker colors for shadows and lighter ones for highlights.
  3. Tree Painting: Use reds and oranges for the autumn foliage. A round brush will help you add the dot-like leaves.

Final Touches

  1. Review and Adjust: Step back and review your work. Make note of any areas needing refinement or additional detail.
  2. Fine Details: Use a fine brush for any necessary final highlights or shadows, ensuring depth and emphasis in your painting.
  3. Seal the Painting: Once satisfied, consider applying a varnish to protect your painting.

Embrace the vibrant colors and bold shapes to capture the essence of Stob Dearg, transforming your canvas into a dynamic piece of the Scottish Highlands.
