Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The breathtaking painting of Loch Lochy captures the tranquil beauty of the Scottish Highlands. With its vivid, impressionistic brushwork, the painting showcases a dramatic landscape where the warm hues of sunset play against the cool, reflective waters of the loch. Majestic mountains embrace the scene, rising protectively around the water, their peaks catching the last light of day. The colour palette is rich and varied, featuring bold oranges, deep blues, and earthy greens, all beautifully balanced to create a harmonious and evocative scene. The painterly style invites the viewer to experience the ever-changing light and mood of the Highlands.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Acrylic paints in the following colours: Ultramarine Blue, Burnt Sienna, Cadmium Orange, Titanium White, and Sap Green.
Brushes: a large flat brush, a medium round brush, and a small detail brush.
Canvas or paper suitable for acrylic painting.
Palette for mixing colours.
Water container and paper towels.

Preparation

Start by setting up your workspace: Ensure that you have adequate lighting and a sturdy surface to work on.
Prepare your line drawing: Use the provided line drawing or grid version for an accurate composition. You can either transfer the grid onto your canvas or use tracing paper to transfer the outlines directly.
Familiarize yourself with the colour wheel: Observe the most used colours and how they interact within the painting.

Painting Process

Background Wash:
- Mix Titanium White with a touch of Cadmium Orange to create a soft, pale wash. Use your large flat brush to cover the sky area. Let a few brushstrokes extend over the mountain tops for a smooth transition.
Layering the Mountains:
- Mix Ultramarine Blue with a hint of Burnt Sienna for the distant mountains. Apply with a medium round brush, using diagonal strokes to suggest the mountain slopes.
- For the closer hills, mix a richer, darker color by adding more Burnt Sienna to your mix. Notice the way the light hits the peaks and leave some areas lighter to capture this.
Painting the Loch:
- Reflect the mountain colours into the waters by repeating the blues and oranges with horizontal brushstrokes. Use your palette to adjust the reflection colours to be slightly muted compared to their sources.
- Add hints of green and brown to reflect the trees and natural surroundings.
Add the Foreground Trees:
- Mix Sap Green with a touch of Burnt Sienna for the foliage. Use a medium round brush to suggest clusters of leaves, focusing on shaping the trees without needing to capture each leaf.
- Use the small detail brush with a darker mix to paint the tree trunks and branches. Pay attention to their reflected forms in the loch.
Final Details and Highlights:
- Revisit areas that need more definition or highlights. Use Titanium White sparingly to add sunlight glinting on water and mountain peaks.
- Adjust the depth and richness of colours as needed, referring to the source painting for guidance.

Using Line Drawings and Grids

Line Drawings: These provide simplified outlines of major elements to assist with placement and proportions. Use them to trace or guide freehand replication.

Grid Version: The grid helps maintain correct proportions and perspective. By working square by square, you can ensure accuracy in replicating the scene, especially useful for complex areas.

Conclusion

As you work on this painting, embrace the expressive nature of the brushstrokes and colours, allowing them to guide your recreation of this stunning landscape of Loch Lochy.
