Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Ben Nevis captures the majestic grandeur of Scotland’s highest peak. It employs vibrant hues and bold brushstrokes to convey the dynamic interplay of light and shadow across its rugged, rocky surfaces. The composition features the mountain outlined against a gently swirling sky, reflecting in a serene body of water below. Dominant colors include deep blues and purples for the mountain shadows, with bright oranges and yellows highlighting sunlit areas. The foreground is a mosaic of reflective tones and textures, adding to the painting's impressionistic style.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Canvas or suitable painting surface
Acrylic or oil paints as per color wheel
Paintbrushes in various sizes
Palette for mixing colors
Optional: Artist's grid printed on transparency

1. Preparing Your Canvas

Secure your canvas on an easel or flat surface.
Apply a thin, even layer of gesso if using a canvas. Let it dry completely.

2. Using the Line Drawing and Grid

Line Drawing: Lightly sketch over this outline onto your canvas using a pencil. This will help in maintaining composition accuracy.
Grid Method: Overlay the artist's grid on the source image. Ensure your canvas is similarly gridded to transfer the image accurately.

3. Painting the Sky

Mix a light blue as shown on the color palette.
Use broad, sweeping brushstrokes to create the dynamic sky.
Introduce subtle other hues for depth, such as creamy whites and soft pastels.

4. Capturing the Mountain

Begin with the sunlit sections. Use vibrant orange and yellow tones to paint these patches.
For the shadowed areas, mix darker blues and purples. Apply this with angular strokes to suggest texture and depth.
Blend the edges where light meets shadow to create a natural transition.

5. Painting the Reflection and Water

Use a lighter brushwork technique to sketch in the reflective water surface.
Capture the reflections by echoing the mountain's colors with a slight blur effect.
Add details with highlights of white to bring life to the water surface.

6. Detailing the Foreground

Recreate the varied textures using smaller brushes.
Paint the rocks and foliage with neutral and earthy tones, referencing the color wheel.
Integrate the scenery with light dabs and strokes to simulate natural patterns.

7. Final Touches

Step back to assess your work. Adjust any colors or details as needed.
Add any final highlights or shadows for contrast.
Allow your painting to dry completely before displaying.

Enjoy the process and allow your personal style to shine through as you recreate this majestic view of Ben Nevis.
