  • Canvas or canvas board
  • Brushes (various sizes)
  • Palette knife
  • Palette
  • Water and cloth for cleaning brushes
  • Paint-Your-Own Pack (including line drawings, sketches, and grid lines)

Preparation

  1. Set Up Your Workspace: Ensure your workspace is well-lit and spacious. Arrange your materials for easy access.
  2. Review the Images: Study the source painting image provided in the pack to understand the composition and color distribution.
  3. Prepare Your Canvas: Use the optional grid version to lightly sketch the layout on your canvas, helping maintain accuracy in proportions and placement.

Painting Process

1. Background and Sky

  1. Begin with the Sky: Mix light blue and white and use large sweeping motions to paint the sky. Incorporate hints of light yellow near the horizon.
  2. Add Cloud Features: Use a palette knife to subtly layer white and light grey, creating dynamic cloud textures.

2. Mountain

  1. Outline the Mountain: Follow the line drawings to accurately outline Schiehallion.
  2. Base Color Application: Apply a base of deep purple using a medium brush. Build up layers with contrasts of orange and red to highlight the rugged mountain surface.
  3. Highlight Snow Caps: Use clean white to accentuate the snow-covered areas at the peak.

3. Land and Foreground

  1. Base Layer: Paint a blend of greens for the grassy areas and browns for the muddy foreground, mixing in warm tones from the palette.
  2. Add Details: Using thin brushes, detail the tree silhouettes against the landscape with dark browns and blacks.
  3. Create Reflection: Mimic the sky and mountain colors in the water to suggest reflection. Use brush strokes and a knife for texture.

4. Final Touches

  1. Enhance Highlights and Shadows: Use the palette knife to add finishing touches, enhancing contrasts with highlights and shadows for depth.
  2. Correct Any Areas: Step back to view your painting from a distance, allowing you to identify and correct any imbalances in color or form.

Tips for Success

  • Take regular breaks to view your work with fresh eyes.
  • Don't be afraid to mix colors directly on the canvas for more dynamic and fluid transitions.
  • Refer back to the source images and line drawings for guidance and inspiration throughout the process.

Embrace the process as you bring the serene beauty of Schiehallion to life on your canvas, capturing the essence of this iconic Scottish landscape.
