Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Acrylic or oil paints as per the color palette in your Paint-Your-Own Pack
  • Variety of brushes (small, medium, large)
  • Canvas or art paper
  • Palette
  • Cup of water or brush cleaner
  • Pencil for sketching outlines
  • Easel (optional)

Step 1: Preparation

  1. Organize your workspace: Ensure you have good lighting and all materials at hand.
  2. Review the source image: Study the provided image in your PDF file to understand the composition and color distribution.
  3. Set up your canvas: Use the optional grid provided in your pack to sketch light pencil lines, establishing key compositional elements (mountain peaks, valley curves, the figure, etc.).

Step 2: Underpainting

  1. Background: Begin with a wash of light blue for the sky, using a large brush. Add subtle variations of white to create a sense of depth and cloud textures.
  2. Far Mountains: Apply cooler, darker shades of blue and gray, using smooth, horizontal strokes to suggest distance.

Step 3: Middle Ground

  1. Valley and River: Use a mix of yellows and greens to paint the valley. Incorporate varying shades for highlights and shadows, following the meandering path of the river.
  2. Riverbanks: Add lighter whites and grays along the river, enhancing its winding path.

Step 4: Foreground Details

  1. Foreground Mountains: Use bold strokes with a mixture of rich oranges and ochres. Add highlights and shadows to create depth and form.
  2. Foliage & Rocks: Incorporate dashes of red, pink, and dark greens for the vegetation and rocks. Use expressive brushwork to capture texture.

Step 5: Add the Figure

  1. Outline: Sketch the hiker using the line drawing as a guide, ensuring proportions match the landscape scale.
  2. Painting the Figure: Use reds and grays for the hiker’s clothes. Utilize a fine brush for detailed work, ensuring the figure stands out against the vibrant background.

Step 6: Final Touches

  1. Refine Details: Revisit light and shadow interplay throughout the painting, enhancing contrast where necessary.
  2. Blending: Ensure smooth transitions between color areas for a harmonious finish.
  3. Varnish (optional): Once dry, consider applying a varnish to protect your painting and enhance vibrancy.
