Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Schiehallion captures the majestic beauty of this iconic Scottish mountain, set against a vibrant, fiery sunset. The sky is a tapestry of warm oranges, reds, and yellows, transitioning into softer shades as they reflect in the tranquil lake below. The mountain itself stands stark and bold, with crisp whites and subtle blues and purples defining its snow-capped peak. This artwork embodies a dynamic interplay between light and shadow, texture and color, creating a vivid, atmospheric landscape that is both dramatic and serene.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Acrylic or oil paints
  • Brushes of varying sizes
  • Canvas or painting surface
  • Palette
  • Easel (optional)
  • Line drawing/sketch from the Paint-Your-Own Pack
  • Artist’s grid version (optional for composition)
  • Colour wheel from the Paint-Your-Own Pack

Using the Line Drawing and Grid

Begin by lightly transferring the line drawing to your canvas. If using the artist’s grid, align the grid on your canvas with the grid on the source image to ensure accurate composition.

Step 1: Sky Background

  1. Mix paints: Create a palette of warm hues using reds, oranges, and yellows.
  2. Apply the base layers: Use a large brush to paint broad strokes of orange and red, starting from the top of the canvas, gradually blending into lighter yellows towards the horizon.
  3. Blend seamlessly: Use horizontal strokes to blend colors smoothly, capturing the gradient effect of the sunset.

Step 2: Mountain

  1. Define the form: With a medium brush, outline the shape of Schiehallion using whites and light blues.
  2. Add depth: Introduce purples and blues to indicate shadows and contour the mountain, emphasizing its snow-capped peak.
  3. Highlight: Use pure white on the highest points to enhance the light reflection.

Step 3: Water Reflection

  1. Create reflection colors: Mirror the sky's palette in the water, using horizontal strokes for a smooth reflection effect.
  2. Detail the reflections: Add subtle dark lines and breaks to suggest water movement and texture.

Step 4: Foreground and Details

  1. Paint the shoreline: Apply darker tones of browns and purples to define the terrain.
  2. Emphasize texture: Use a palette knife or a stiff brush to create rough textures for rocks and vegetation.
  3. Final touches: Delicately add thin, dark lines to suggest twigs and grasses sticking out of the water.

Step 5: Final Adjustments

  • Review and refine: Step back to examine your work. Add any necessary details or corrections to ensure balance and harmony.
  • Let dry: Allow your painting to fully dry before adding any varnish or framing.

Enjoy the creative process, and let your personal style shine through as you recreate the enchanting view of Schiehallion!
