Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Glen Tanar in Scotland captures the serene beauty of the landscape with a modern impressionistic style. The piece breathes with vibrant, bold colors, encapsulating the essence of the Scottish Highlands. The scene features a sweeping view of lush fields in shades of yellow and green, interspersed with patches of cool blues and crisp whites that hint at a meandering stream. Dark, mysterious trees punctuate the foreground, while majestic dark blue hills roll in the distance, meeting a sky dappled with hints of clouds. The artist’s dynamic brushstrokes imbue the image with energy and movement, inviting the viewer to get lost in its vibrancy.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas
  • Acrylic paints based on the color palette provided in the Paint-Your-Own Pack
  • Brushes: wide flat brush, medium round brush, fine detail brush
  • Palette knife
  • Pencil or charcoal for sketching (optional)
  • Water and palette for mixing
  • Printout of the grid or line drawing (from the Paint-Your-Own Pack)

Using the Grid and Line Drawings

Begin by lightly sketching the composition on your canvas using the grid method, which will help you accurately place the major elements of the painting. The line drawings provided are also a useful reference for this stage.

Initial Layers

  1. Wash and Sky: Start by applying a light wash of blue for the sky at the top third of the canvas, blending in some white to create subtle cloud formations.
  2. Backdrop Hills: Use a deep, rich blue (darker than the sky) to paint the hills in the background, employing bold horizontal brushstrokes to suggest distance.

Main Elements

  1. Fields and Vegetation: Mix various green and yellow shades to capture the fields. Use sweeping brushstrokes to lay down areas of color, enhancing depth with darker greens at the base.
  2. Trees: Add detail to the trees in the foreground using dark browns and greens. Use a palette knife to create texture and define the trunks and leafy areas.
  3. Stream and Highlights: Incorporate vibrant blues and whites to outline the meandering stream. Add reflective colors drawn from the surrounding fields to suggest movement and water surface highlights.

Finishing Touches

  1. Enhance Contrast: Review the painting and increase the contrast between light and dark areas to add drama and depth, particularly around the edges of fields and trees.
  2. Final Textures: Use your palette knife for final textures and to introduce a few spontaneous elements, mimicking the energy of the natural environment.
  3. Final Details: With a fine brush, add any remaining details that bring cohesion and polish to the overall composition.

Take your time to step back and examine your artwork throughout the process. Being able to view the entire piece helps adjust compositions, tones, and textures, ensuring a rewarding recreation of Glen Tanar’s vibrant landscape.
