Brushes: large flat, medium round, and fine detail brushes

Getting Started

Begin by preparing your workspace and materials. Set up your canvas and have your paints and brushes ready.

Use of Line Drawings and Grid

The included line drawings and grid can be printed and transferred onto your canvas. Use these tools to ensure accurate composition by comparing them with your progress. The grid helps with placement and perspective, while line drawings provide structural guidance.

Painting Process

Background:
- Mix a soft sky blue with whites to paint the sky. Use broad, horizontal strokes with a large flat brush.
- For distant hills, mix cool blues and greens. Use a medium round brush to apply gentle strokes, blending slightly into the sky.
Midground:
- Paint the grassy hills on either side using various green hues. Add small amounts of yellow or blue to capture shifts in light and shadow.
- Use gentle, sweeping strokes to suggest the texture of the landscape.
River:
- Create a vibrant blue for the river with touches of green and white to depict the water’s movement.
- Layer the colors, using lighter shades towards the center to show reflections of the sky.
- Use swirling motions with your brush to mimic water currents.
Foreground:
- Incorporate more detailed brushwork to highlight stones and riverbank features. Mix greens with hints of orange for variation.
- Focus on the textures using small, precise strokes with a fine detail brush.
Final Touches:
- Adjust contrasts by adding deeper shadows and brighter highlights.
- Use the finest brush to add delicate lines for ripples and reflections in the water.
- Evaluate your painting from a distance to check for overall balance and harmony.

Conclusion

Take time to review your work, adjusting any areas as necessary. Ensure your colors and composition align with the inspiring river landscape of Scotland. Enjoy the process, and allow your painting to capture the tranquil beauty of the River Orchy.
