Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas or painting surface
  • Acrylic paints in the following colors: Ultramarine Blue, Turquoise, White, Burnt Sienna, Yellow Ochre, and Cadmium Red
  • Brushes: Flat, round, and fan brushes in various sizes
  • Pencil for sketching
  • Palette
  • Water cup and paper towels for cleaning brushes

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

Start by using the included line drawing or grid to sketch the main elements of the painting onto your canvas. The grid helps ensure accurate proportions and composition. Follow the grid lines to align key features such as the horizon, mountains, and the flow of the sand and water.

Painting Steps

  1. Background and Sky:
    • Begin with the sky. Use a flat brush to apply Ultramarine Blue at the top of the canvas, gradually blending with White to suggest clouds and lighter sky towards the horizon.
    • Add the wispy cloud textures by using a fan brush with White, lightly dragging it across the sky area.
  2. Mountains and Horizon:
    • Paint the distant mountains using a combination of Ultramarine Blue and a touch of Burnt Sienna for shadow areas. Keep your brushstrokes loose to capture the distant, ethereal look.
  3. Ocean and Water:
    • Mix Turquoise with Ultramarine Blue for the ocean, applying broad strokes to reflect the movement of the waves. Use lighter shades closer to the shore to depict shallow waters.
    • Introduce White along the shoreline to create a foamy effect, enhancing the realism of the waves crashing onto the sand.
  4. Foreground (Rocks and Sand):
    • Use a mix of Yellow Ochre and White for the sandy areas. Add texture by lightly dabbing with the brush to simulate the grainy texture of the sand.
    • Add layers of Burnt Sienna and Cadmium Red with expressive strokes for the rocks and outcroppings. Use a palette knife for added texture if desired.
  5. Details and Finishing Touches:
    • Add final highlights and details using a small round brush. Touch up areas with pure White or bright yellows and reds to add life and vitality.
    • Step back and make any necessary adjustments to ensure balance and harmony across the painting.
