Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare Your Workspace:
- Set up your Paint-Your-Own Pack materials within easy reach.
- Ensure your workspace is well-lit and organized.
Sketch the Composition:
- Use the included line drawing to trace the basic outlines onto your canvas.
- If you prefer more accuracy, use the provided artist’s grid as a reference to ensure proportions are correct.
Block in the Sky:
- Begin by applying broad strokes of pale blue and white for the sky, using a large flat brush.
- Add darker blue and grey to define the moody clouds.
Paint the Mountains and Hills:
- Use the color wheel for guidance and mix shades of blue, purple, and dark green for the distant mountains.
- Apply bold, energetic strokes to convey texture and depth.
- For the hills in the foreground, blend earthy tones of green and brown.
Capture the Water:
- Use a mixture of blue and white to create the reflective surface of the loch.
- Introduce horizontal strokes to replicate the water’s natural movement.
Add the Vibrant Foreground:
- Mix vibrant hues of orange, yellow, and red to bring the foreground to life.
- Use a palette knife or a brush to apply thick, textured strokes for a dynamic finish.
Final Details and Finishing Touches:
- Add small details to the landscape, such as loose brushwork for foliage and rocks.
- Step back from your painting occasionally to check for balance and composition.
- Sign your painting once you are satisfied with the result!

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The line drawings provide a foundational guide, ideal for mapping out the primary elements of the scene on your canvas. If you choose to use the artist’s grid, align each section carefully to keep your painting proportionate and cohesive. This method is especially helpful for capturing the perspective and scale of the mountainous landscape and the loch.

Enjoy the process, and let the sweeping beauty of the Scottish Highlands inspire your brushwork!
