Using the Line Drawing and Grid

The line drawing provides simplified outlines of the painting. Use the grid to help you accurately transfer the composition onto your canvas, ensuring proportions and placements are correct.

Painting Steps

1. Sketch the Outline

  1. Lightly sketch the main elements of the landscape on your canvas using the printed line drawing as a guide. Use the grid to help map out correct proportions.
  2. Focus on the placement of mountains, the horizon line, and the foreground details.

2. Paint the Sky

  1. Begin with the sky, using a flat brush to blend pinks, purples, and soft yellows as shown in the color palette. Use horizontal strokes to mimic the natural gradient.
  2. Transition smoothly from the lighter hues near the sun to deeper purples as you move upwards.

3. Define the Mountains

  1. With a round brush, apply bold strokes of rich blues and purples for the mountains. Observe the contrast between light and shadow to create depth.
  2. Blend gently where the mountains meet the sky to soften edges, retaining some of the dramatic outlines.

4. Capture the Reflections

  1. In the water area below, mirror the colors of the sky and mountains to create reflections. Use the same brush and colors with looser, horizontal strokes.
  2. Incorporate white to highlight the lightest parts of the water, adding dimension.

5. Add Foreground Details

  1. Switch to a detail brush to paint rocks and foliage in the foreground. Utilize dark blues, blacks, and touches of pink and yellow according to the color guide.
  2. Layer colors to build texture and use quick, confident strokes for a natural look.

6. Final Touches

  1. Step back and assess the overall balance of the painting.
  2. Make any necessary adjustments to achieve harmony by tweaking colors or adding highlights and shadows where needed.
