Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

Glen Rosa, a valley nestled in the heart of Scotland, is brought to life with vibrant strokes in this mesmerizing painting. The artwork captures the serene beauty of the landscape, featuring rolling hills bathed in soft hues of greens and blues. The central stream meanders through the scene, reflecting the sky and surrounding flora in its tranquil waters. Splashes of warm oranges and yellows from the wildflowers and vegetation create a delightful contrast against the cooler tones. The artistic style combines realism with impressionistic elements, offering a lively yet calming portrait of nature's splendor.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas or paper
  • Brushes (variety of sizes)
  • Acrylic or oil paints
  • Palette
  • Water and cloth for cleaning brushes
  • Easel or flat surface

Preparation

Before starting, set up your workspace with all materials within easy reach. Use the included line drawing or grid on your canvas to help with composition accuracy.

Step 1: Background Wash

  1. Begin by applying a light wash of blues and purples to the sky area, creating a smooth transition to mimic the gradient of the sky.
  2. Allow this layer to dry completely.

Step 2: Sketch with Grid

  1. Using the artist's grid, lightly sketch the main outlines of the hills, stream, and tree placement on your canvas. This will help guide your brushwork and ensure accuracy.

Step 3: Laying the Landscape

  1. Paint the distant hills with muted blues and purples, using a larger brush for broad strokes.
  2. Add greens and yellows to the foreground hills, allowing some blending to suggest depth and distance.

Step 4: Detailing the Stream

  1. Fill in the stream with various shades of blue and hints of pinks to capture the reflective quality of the water.
  2. Add highlights using white for the sky's reflection.

Step 5: Rocks and Flora

  1. Paint the rocks along the stream's edge with a combination of grey, purple, and green tones.
  2. Add the wildflowers using warm orange and yellow hues to contrast against the cool tones of the rocks and water.

Step 6: Foreground and Details

  1. Use a small brush to add fine details to the grass and flowers in the foreground. Use a stippling technique for the texture.
  2. Add final touches to the trees with darker greens to give depth and dimension.

Step 7: Final Touches

  1. Ensure all elements are balanced, and add any additional highlights or shadows as needed.
  2. Step back to view the painting as a whole and make adjustments for harmony and balance.
