Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Lunan Bay captures the serene beauty of a Scottish coastal landscape bathed in the soft, ethereal glow of twilight. The scene is dominated by a vibrant, swirling sky of purples, blues, and hints of orange as the day transitions into night. The moon hangs large and luminescent, casting a gentle light over the beach and ocean. The interplay of light and shadow across the sandy shore and rugged rocks is striking, creating a dynamic contrast against the placid waves gently kissing the shoreline. The palette is rich with cool and warm tones, ranging from deep indigos and blues to soft pastels and earthy browns, embodying an impressionistic style that invites you to experience the tranquility and expansive freedom of the bay.

Painting Instructions

Background and Sky: Begin with the sky, which is a major component of the painting. Use broad strokes to apply a base layer of deep blues and purples. Gradually blend in lighter shades, adding hints of orange and yellow around the moon area to create a glowing effect. Use a large brush for smooth transitions and to capture the cloud formations.
Moon Glow: Paint the moon with a soft, luminous white mixed with a hint of blue. Use gentle, swirling motions to suggest the halo effect surrounding it. Blend carefully into the surrounding sky to maintain a natural glow.
Ocean and Sand: Use a mix of lighter blues and greens for the ocean, implementing gentle horizontal strokes to suggest the motion of the waves. On the shore, blend sandy browns with subtle pastel hues, reflecting the sky’s colors. Pay attention to the transition between wet and dry sand, indicated by the dark rocks and shadowy areas.
Rocks and Shadows: Outline the rocks with dark, earthy tones. Use a smaller brush to add texture and depth. Highlight the edges with lighter shades to mimic light reflection and create dimension. Blend shadows extending from the rocks with layering techniques to achieve realistic depth.
Final Touches: Enhance the overall vibrancy by adding details and reflections in the water. Ensure the painting has balanced color harmony by comparing with the color wheel from the pack. Make any necessary adjustments for enhancing contrast and visual appeal.

Tips for Success

Keep your brush strokes loose and flowing to emulate the impressionistic style.
Regularly step back from your work to assess the overall balance and composition.
Experiment with layering colors to achieve the desired depth and luminosity.

Enjoy the meditative process of painting Lunan Bay, allowing each stroke to transport you to the tranquil shores of Scotland.
