Using Your Paint-Your-Own Pack

Your pack includes line drawings, sketches, and an artist's grid. Use these to assist with composition accuracy. The line drawing acts as your outline guide, and the artist's grid can help you maintain correct proportions.

Composition and Sketching

Prepare Your Canvas: Set up your canvas, ensuring it’s primed for painting.
Grid Method (Optional): If using the grid, lightly draw it on your canvas. Match it with the grid on your reference image for help with proportions.
Initial Sketch: Use the line drawing to sketch the main elements of the scene—the beach, sea, hills, and sky.

Painting the Sky

Background Layer: Begin with the sky. Use a wide brush to apply a base layer with shades of pink and purple at the top gradually blending into blues.
Clouds and Sun: Shape the clouds with a flat brush using lighter blues and whites. Place the sun with a mix of bright yellows and whites, allowing it to blend softly into the surrounding sky.
Detailing: Add highlights and subtle shading to the clouds using varied strokes to emphasize the dynamic sky.

Painting the Sea

Base Layers: Apply a base of deep blues mixed with a bit of green for the sea, leaving spaces for wave highlights.
Waves: Introduce white and light blue on the surface for the wave crests, using short, swift strokes.
Reflections: Enhance reflection under the sun using yellows and whites, mirroring its light on the wave crests.

Painting the Beach and Foreground

Sand Base: Use a warm beige or light brown for the sand, covering the lower part of the canvas.
Textures and Rocks: Add details with a mix of browns, blacks, and ochres for the rocks. Use rough strokes to mimic their texture.
Shadows and Highlights: Incorporate shadows with deeper shades and highlight sunlit areas with lighter hues, enhancing depth.

Final Touches

Adjustments: Assess the entire painting for balance in color and light. Add any necessary touches to unify the elements.
Details: Use a detail brush to refine edges and add any fine details to the landscape.
Signing: Once satisfied, sign your artwork!
