Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preparing Your Canvas

Use the Grid and Line Drawings: Begin by using the grid version from your Paint-Your-Own Pack. Lightly sketch the main outlines with a pencil. This will serve as your guide to maintaining accurate proportions.

Step 2: Painting the Sky

  1. Mix a light blue: Combine white and a touch of blue.
  2. Apply to Sky: Use a flat brush to fill the upper part of the canvas with horizontal strokes.
  3. Create Clouds: Use white with a touch of gray to create soft, fluffy clouds by dabbing with a round brush.

Step 3: Painting the Distant Trees

  1. Mix a dark green: Mix blue, yellow, and a dash of black.
  2. Paint Tree Line: Use a round brush to depict the forest on the horizon with vertical strokes.

Step 4: Painting the Fields

  1. Mix vibrant yellow-green: Combine yellow and green.
  2. Fill Fields: Use a flat brush to paint the fields, leaving areas for the stream.
  3. Add Variation: Mix more green for shadows and add dimension by varying your brush strokes.

Step 5: Painting the Stream

  1. Mix a bright blue: Use blue and white for highlights.
  2. Paint Stream: Use a round brush to fill in the stream, adding white highlights for reflections.

Step 6: Adding Trees and Foreground Details

  1. Mix deep green and brown: For tree trunks and foliage.
  2. Paint Trees: Use a detail brush for trunks and a round brush for foliage. Add highlights with a lighter green.
  3. Wildflowers: Use bright pinks, purples, and red dabs for flowers in the foreground.

Step 7: Final Touches

  1. Add Shadows and Depth: Use burnt sienna and black to enhance shadows along the stream and trees.
  2. Refine Details: Use a fine brush for any small corrections and enhancements to details.
  3. Highlight Key Areas: Use white to emphasize light reflections on water and foliage.
