Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Acrylic paints (refer to the colour palette in your Paint-Your-Own Pack)
  • Canvas or paper
  • Brushes: flat, round, and detail sizes
  • Palette for mixing colours
  • Water and a cloth for cleaning brushes
  • Optional: Artists’ grid or line drawing from the pack

Preparing Your Canvas

  1. Set Up: Place your canvas on an easel or a flat surface.
  2. Grid or Line Drawing: If using the grid, ensure it is aligned perfectly with your canvas. Alternatively, transfer the outline using the line drawing provided in your pack.

Painting the Sky

  1. Mix your Base Colours: Start with soft pink and light blue for the dawn sky.
  2. Apply the Colours: Use wide strokes of a flat brush to sweep the mixed colours across the top half of the canvas. Blend them smoothly to create a gradient effect.

Creating the Distant Mountains

  1. Mix Grey Tones: Prepare a range of grey-blues by subtly blending white, black, and blue.
  2. Paint the Horizon: Start with the furthest peaks, applying the lightest grey. Use a slightly darker shade for each layer moving forward.
  3. Define the Peaks: Utilize a small round brush for detail and to maintain the soft, muted transitions between the mountain layers.

Adding Midground Hills

  1. Mix Muted Blues and Browns: For these layers, subtly increase the intensity of blues, adding hints of brown for warmth.
  2. Block in Shapes: With a flat brush, start painting in the rolling forms of the hills, leaving space for highlights and shadows.

Bringing Depth with Foreground

  1. Darker Tones for Foreground Hills: Prepare deeper blues and integrate subtle pinks.
  2. Detail the Foreground: Use a detail brush to add texture and depth to the closest hills, enhancing the sense of perspective.

Finishing Touches

  1. Refine Blends: Smooth any harsh lines or transitions to maintain the painting's fluidity.
  2. Highlights & Shadows: Adjust highlights and shadows to enhance form and depth.
  3. Review & Adjust: Step back and assess your painting. Make any last adjustments in colour balance and detail.

Using the Colour Wheel

Refer to the Colour Wheel: This tool will guide your mixing process, helping you match hues, shadows, and highlights more accurately. Adjust lightness and saturation according to the corresponding areas of your painting.

Enjoy the process of recreating this serene landscape. Allow the subtle hues and gentle forms to guide your brush in crafting your own piece of the Scottish Highlands.
