Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Glen Nevis in Scotland captures the serene beauty of the Scottish Highlands with its sweeping vistas, rich colours, and dramatic contrasts. The composition features a meandering river flowing through lush green valleys, flanked by majestic mountains. Vivid greens and vibrant blues dominate the scene, while warm oranges and earthy browns bring the landscape to life. This piece embodies a dynamic yet harmonious interplay of light and shadow, showcasing an Impressionistic style with bold brushstrokes to convey movement and depth. The scene invites viewers to immerse themselves in a world of natural splendor and tranquility.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Step 1: Prepare Your Workspace

  • Gather your canvas, brushes, and paints as specified in your Paint-Your-Own Pack.
  • Ensure you have access to natural or bright artificial light.
  • Review the source painting image, sketches, and the colour wheel included in the pack.

Step 2: Sketching the Basic Outline

Using the provided line drawings:

  1. Lightly sketch the basic outlines of the mountains, river, and foreground rocks onto your canvas.
  2. Employ the optional artists grid version for more accuracy by matching the lines and proportions as closely as possible.

Step 3: Blocking in Colours

  • Reference the colour wheel for the most used colours in the painting.
  • Start with large areas: apply the base greens in the valley and deep blues on the distant mountains.
  • Use a broad brush to cover these areas quickly without worrying about detail.

Step 4: Adding Depth and Shadows

  • Mix darker tones of blue and green to add shadows on the mountains and along the riverbank.
  • Use directional brushstrokes to indicate the flow of the river and the texture of the landscape.

Step 5: Highlighting with Warmer Tones

  • Introduce the warm oranges and yellows to the sunlit areas of the mountains and valleys.
  • Blend subtly into surrounding areas to create a natural gradient and emphasize the play of light.

Step 6: Detailing the Foreground

  • Focus on the rocks and foliage in the foreground using smaller brushes for detail.
  • Add texture with quick, varied strokes to mimic the natural randomness of rocks and plant life.

Step 7: Refining the River

  • Layer lighter shades on the water to highlight the river’s movement and reflection.
  • Use a thin brush to define sharper lines along the water’s edge and create detailed reflections.

Step 8: Final Touches

  • Review your painting and adjust colours and shadows where necessary to match the source image more closely.
  • Use a fine brush for any last minute touches and adding additional texture where needed.
  • Let the painting dry completely before displaying or framing.

Follow these steps closely, and use the included aids in your Paint-Your-Own Pack for the best results. Enjoy the creative process as you bring the breathtaking landscape of Glen Nevis to life!
