Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Loch Lomond captures the serene beauty of a sunset over the Scottish lake, with gentle hills in silhouette against a golden sky. The vibrant foreground features lush autumnal foliage that transitions into the tranquil blues of the distant mountains. A solitary figure stands gazing towards the setting sun, inviting viewers into a moment of reflection. The warm tones of orange, red, and gold are beautifully contrasted with cooler blues and purples, creating a harmonious yet dynamic composition. The impressionistic style emphasizes the play of light and color, evoking a sense of peace and natural splendor.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas or art paper
  • Acrylic or oil paints (as indicated in the color wheel)
  • Brushes of various sizes (flat, round, and fine detail)
  • Palette
  • Water or paint thinner

Step 1: Preparing Your Canvas

Begin by setting up your canvas. Use the grid version provided in your pack to outline the basic composition, ensuring accuracy in proportions and placement. Lightly sketch the main elements using a pencil. Focus on the horizon, hills, figure, and large foreground shrubs.

Step 2: Painting the Sky

  1. Mix shades of yellow, orange, and pink to paint the glowing sky around the sun. Start with the lighter yellows at the sun's center, transitioning to deeper oranges and pinks outward.
  2. Use soft, horizontal strokes to blend colors smoothly, capturing the soft gradient of a sunset.

Step 3: Creating the Water Reflection

  1. Reflect the sky colors onto the water. Begin with a light yellow strip directly below the sun and blend outwards with softer pinks and purples.
  2. Use horizontal strokes, maintaining a smooth surface appearance.

Step 4: Defining the Distant Hills

  1. Mix various shades of blue and purple to depict the distant mountains.
  2. Apply the paint with more defined strokes to create the silhouette effect against the sky. Pay attention to the unique shapes and slopes of each hill.

Step 5: Adding Depth to the Foreground

  1. Start with darker tones for the undergrowth, using shades of deep red, orange, and brown.
  2. Layer lighter colors on top to create texture, using quick, small brush strokes to depict individual leaves and grass.

Step 6: Painting the Figure

  1. Mix dark greens and muted colors for the figure's clothing, making sure they stand out against the bright background.
  2. Focus on silhouette and posture rather than details, maintaining an impressionistic style.

Step 7: Final Details and Adjustments

  • Check the overall balance of colors and make adjustments where necessary.
  • Add fine details to the trees and foreground plants using a detail brush.
  • Increase contrast in areas that need more definition, such as the edges of the hills or reflections in the water.

Using the Line Drawings and Artist's Grid

The included line drawings provide a simplified version of the image to assist in identifying major shapes and structures. Use the grid to maintain placement accuracy, ideal for beginners or those refining their compositional skills. Transfer the grid and lines lightly onto your canvas before applying paint.
