Start by placing the grid over the original painting and your canvas, if using.
Lightly sketch the key shapes and outlines using the line drawing as a guide.
Focus on positioning the boats, houses, and horizon accurately.

Painting the Sky

Base Layer: Begin with a light blue for the sky, using broad brushstrokes to cover the upper portion of the canvas.
Clouds: Add depth with sweeps of white and grey to form clouds and capture the dynamic weather.
Blend: Use a dry brush to blend the sky smoothly where colors meet.

Adding the Buildings

Background: Paint the houses using light cream and soft yellows, maintaining clean edges.
Details: Use a fine brush for windows and doors, using darker blues and greys for shadows.
Roofs: Brighten with red and orange tones, ensuring they pop against the sky.

Painting the Water

Base Layer: Apply a deep blue, mirroring the sky’s reflection.
Reflections: Add reflections of the boats and buildings using lighter, softer strokes.
Details: Introduce highlights with white to depict the movement of water.

Detailing the Boats

Structures: Block in the major colors of the boats, focusing on bright reds and blues.
Highlights: Add highlights to the hulls and sides of the boats for dimension.
Finishing Touches: Use a fine brush to add ropes and minor details, using black and grey for definition.
