Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

Standing majestically under the vast sky, Ben Nevis in this painting is a celebration of natural beauty, captured through bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors. The scene presents a towering mountain range, with its peaks adorned in snow, seamlessly blending into rich green valleys and a reflective water body that invites you to gaze deeper. The painting's color palette is a symphony of cool blues and greys for the mountains, bright yellows and greens for the fields, and warm earthy tones for the rich foreground, creating a serene yet dynamic composition.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Preparation

  • Set up your workspace with your Paint-Your-Own Pack PDF, colors, brushes, and canvas.
  • Familiarize yourself with the color wheel included in the pack to understand the primary colors and their hues used in this painting.
  • Review the grid and line drawing options in your pack to decide if you'd like to use them for composition accuracy.

Using the Grid and Line Drawings

You can use the grid to map out the composition on your canvas:

  • Lightly sketch the grid onto your canvas with a pencil to match the grid provided in the PDF.
  • Use the line drawings to outline major forms like the mountain range, water reflections, and trees.
  • This will help ensure proportionate placement and symmetry in the composition.

Painting the Sky and Mountain Range

  1. Begin with the sky, using light blues and whites to create a subtle, windy texture.
  2. Blend slightly lighter colors toward the horizon to add depth.
  3. Next, move to the mountains. Use a mix of darker blues, greys, and touches of white to highlight snow caps and add dimension.
  4. Use sweeping, horizontal brushstrokes to mimic the natural striations found in the mountainous rock formations.

Creating the Valleys and Fields

  1. Transition into the fields with a base of various greens and yellows.
  2. Apply the paint in broad, horizontal sweeps to reflect the expanse of the fields.
  3. Introduce dark green patches to simulate tree clusters and natural ditches.

Painting the Water and Foreground

  1. For the water, mix shades of blue, white, and slight hints of green. Use smooth yet varied strokes to show reflections and ripples.
  2. Capture reflections by strategically placing similar colors used in the sky and surrounding fields.
  3. The foreground can be rendered using earthy reds and browns to bring vibrant contrast and depth.

Adding Final Details

  • With a finer brush, add details like tree trunks and details around the water edges.
  • Refine reflections in the water with small, horizontal brushstrokes to improve realism.
  • Fine-tune with highlights and shadows to give the scene a final, polished look.

By following these steps and utilizing the tools provided in your Paint-Your-Own Pack, you'll recreate a stunning depiction of Ben Nevis, honoring the beauty of this iconic Scottish landscape.
