Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The included line drawings and optional grid are designed to assist you in accurately capturing the composition and proportions of the landscape. Use the grid to replicate the reference image on your canvas, ensuring correct placement of key elements like the mountain, river, and sun.

1. Sketch the Composition

  1. Start by lightly sketching the main elements using the line drawing as a reference.
  2. Ensure the mountain, sun, and river are accurately placed using the grid.
  3. Focus on the major shapes and outlines without detailing finer aspects at this stage.

2. Establish the Background

  1. Mix yellow ochre and a touch of titanium white to create the warm background sky.
  2. Use a flat brush to apply broad strokes, creating a gradient from deeper golden tones near the horizon to lighter tones above.
  3. Add hints of burnt sienna for depth and variety.

3. Paint the Mountain

  1. Mix ultramarine blue with a small amount of Payne's grey for the shadowed areas of the mountain.
  2. Apply with bold, angular strokes to simulate the rocky texture.
  3. Add lighter tones by mixing in titanium white for highlights, focusing on areas where the sunlight hits.

4. Create the River

  1. Begin with dark tones at the river’s edges using a mix of Payne's grey and burnt sienna.
  2. Gradually blend in lighter tones toward the center, using titanium white with traces of blue from the sky reflection.
  3. Use a fan brush for a soft, flowing texture.

5. Add the Foreground

  1. Apply rust and sienna hues for the grass, using quick, expressive strokes to capture the wild, untamed nature of the landscape.
  2. Add shadows and depth by mixing in darker tones.

6. Final Touches

  1. Refine edges and add any missing details with a small round brush.
  2. Enhance the warm sunlight tones with additional layers of yellow ochre and white.
  3. Step back to assess the overall balance and make any necessary adjustments.
