Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

This painting captures the stunning natural beauty of Glen Tanar, Scotland, with a vibrant and expressive style. The composition pulls the viewer through a winding river that cuts through a landscape of rolling fields bathed in the warm glow of a setting sun. The use of bold, dynamic brushstrokes gives the landscape a sense of movement and vitality. The color palette is a harmonious blend of earthy tones with vibrant pinks, blues, and oranges, creating a dramatic contrast that reflects the enchanting atmosphere of the Scottish Highlands.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Acrylic or oil paints (as per color palette included)
Brushes: Flat and round brushes in various sizes
Palette knife
Palette for mixing colors
Water or solvent for cleaning brushes
A rag or paper towels

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The included line drawings and grid version help ensure accurate composition. Use them to outline the major elements of the landscape, focusing on proportion and placement. The grid version can be particularly helpful; it allows you to break down the painting into manageable sections.

Step 1: Sketch the Outline

Using a light pencil or thin brush, transfer the main outlines from the line drawing onto your canvas. Pay attention to the contours of the river and the horizon line.
Check alignment and proportions with the grid, if using, to ensure accuracy.

Step 2: Block in the Background Colors

Mix a sky blue color and use a large flat brush to cover the sky area, adding white to create depth and light.
Use a mix of deep green and navy to paint the distant hills on the horizon.
Let the sky dry slightly before proceeding to minimize color bleeding.

Step 3: Define the Landscape

Mix ochre and sienna to cover the foreground fields. Use expressive strokes to match the brushwork style of the painting.
Introduce the vibrant pink and orange hues, focusing on capturing the flow and texture of the landscape.

Step 4: Paint the River

Use a palette knife for the river, mixing shades of blue and white to capture its fluidity. Employ broad, sweeping strokes for movement.
Add highlights and shadows to suggest the water's depth.

Step 5: Add Detail and Texture

Switch to a smaller brush to add details to the trees and bushes. Use quick, varied strokes to mimic natural foliage.
Dab in the darker shadows and highlights on the trees using a pointillism technique.

Step 6: Final Touches

Review the painting, adding any needed details or texture with a palette knife for additional depth.
Ensure the color transitions are smooth, especially between the sky and hills, and refine any rough edges.
Let your painting dry completely.

By following these structured steps and using the provided resources, you can recreate the majestic beauty of Glen Tanar and enjoy the process of bringing this inspiring landscape to life.
