Materials Needed

Canvas or painting paper
Acrylic or oil paints
Brushes (various sizes)
Palette knife
Palette for mixing colors
Cup of water or medium for cleaning brushes
Paper towels or rags

Preparation

Review the Materials: Examine the source painting image, line drawings, sketches, and color wheel included in your pack.
Set Up Your Workspace: Ensure good lighting and organize your paints, brushes, and other tools.
Grid or Line Drawing: Use the grid or line drawing provided to sketch the basic outlines on your canvas. This will help maintain composition accuracy.

Painting Process

Background Sky:
- Mix shades of yellow and orange to paint the sunset sky using broad horizontal strokes. Refer to the color wheel for guidance.
- Add lighter tones near the sun to create a glowing effect, blending into the darker oranges and blues as they extend towards the edges.
Sun and Horizon:
- Paint the sun with pure white at the horizon line, blending gently into the yellow sky.
- Use a palette knife for texture in the clouds and horizon line to mimic the painting’s style.
Sea:
- Apply varying shades of blue and turquoise to represent the ocean, using sweeping, energetic strokes.
- Add hints of reflected sunset hues on the water for realism.
Cliffs and Land:
- Mix greens and browns for the cliffs, applying them with a palette knife to capture texture.
- Contrast with darker shades for shadowed areas.
Foreground:
- Add vegetation and rocks using dynamic brush strokes. Incorporate the vivid color palette with accents of yellow, red, and greens for depth.
Final Touches:
- Assess the painting from a distance for balance and detail.
- Adjust any areas as needed, adding highlights or shadows for contrast.

Using Line Drawings and Grid

Utilize the line drawings to outline key features such as the horizon, sun, waves, and cliff edges. If using a grid, align it with your canvas to transfer the composition accurately. This ensures your proportions and perspective match the original painting.
