Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Stob Dubh in Scotland captures the majestic essence of the Scottish Highlands. The towering mountain dominates the scene, its craggy peaks etched against a turbulent sky. Rich, earthy tones of orange and yellow highlight the rolling foothills, while the deep blues and cool greys convey a sense of grandeur and solitude. The reflection of the sky and landscape in the quiet stream adds a serene quality to the composition. This artwork embodies a perfect blend of vibrant colors and bold brushwork, illustrating the untamed beauty of the landscape.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas or painting paper
  • Acrylic or oil paints (refer to the provided color palette)
  • Assorted brushes (flat and round)
  • Palette knife
  • Paint palette
  • Cup of water (or paint thinner for oils)
  • Rag or paper towels

Preparation

1. Study the Source Image: Begin by carefully examining the source painting included in your Pack. Take note of the colors, shapes, and lighting.

2. Arrange Your Workspace: Ensure you have good lighting, your materials are at hand, and your canvas is securely placed.

Initial Sketch

3. Utilize the Line Drawing: Use the provided line drawing as a guide to sketch the basic outline of the scene onto your canvas. This will help maintain accurate proportions.

4. Grid Option: If you prefer using a grid, the optional artist's grid version can help you transfer the image with precise alignment.

Underpainting

5. Apply Base Colors: Using a large flat brush, lay down the base colors for the sky, mountain, and foreground. Work from light to dark, using broad strokes to cover large areas.

Building the Landscape

6. Sky and Clouds:

  • Mix soft blues and greys to paint the sky. Use sweeping horizontal brushstrokes for the clouds, blending the edges softly into the sky.
  • Add hints of white and blend to create depth and movement.

7. Mountain Details:

  • Use a palette knife to apply thick layers of dark blues and greys on the mountain peaks.
  • Introduce lighter tones on the sunlit sections using orange and yellow hues. Apply the paint with quick, angled strokes to mimic rocky textures.

8. Foreground and Stream:

  • Build the foreground by layering earthy greens and browns. Use a combination of brushwork and palette knife for texture.
  • For the stream, use a fine brush to reflect the sky's colors. Add light reflections with small dabs of white to suggest water movement.

Adding Details

9. Final Touches:

  • Add fine brush details to indicate rocks, grasses, and trees, employing darker tones for shadow and lighter tones for highlights.
  • Check the overall balance of your painting, refining areas that need added contrast or definition.

Finishing Up

10. Review and Adjust: Step back and look at your painting. Make any final adjustments to ensure it aligns with the source image and your artistic vision.

11. Allow to Dry: Once satisfied, let the painting dry completely in a dust-free environment.
