Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting "Glencoe in Scotland" captures the majestic beauty of the Scottish Highlands. The vivid hues of the landscape contrast with a serene sky, as rolling hills stretch across the horizon. A Highland cow, with its distinctive long fur and prominent horns, stands as a focal point, adding a traditional and rustic charm. The color palette is rich and varied, featuring lush greens, deep blues, and warm earth tones, evoking a sense of adventure and tranquility. The style is expressive, with bold brushstrokes that give life and movement to the scenery.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials You Will Need:

Acrylic or oil paints in the included colors
Canvas or canvas board
Brushes of various sizes
Pencil for sketching
Palette for mixing colors
Water cup (for acrylics) or oil medium (for oils)
Rag or paper towels

Initial Setup

Prepare Your Workspace: Ensure you have ample space, good lighting, and all your materials within reach.
Canvas Preparation: Use the sketches or line drawings provided in the PDF to outline the composition on your canvas lightly.

Using the Grid and Line Drawings

If you have opted for the artist’s grid, align it with your canvas to accurately transfer the source image's proportions. Use the grid lines to help plot major landmarks, such as the horizon line and key shapes like the cow and mountains.

Step 1: Painting the Sky

Begin with a pale blue for the sky, adding hints of white for clouds. Use broad, sweeping strokes to capture the softness of the atmosphere.
Blend the edges softly to ensure a natural gradient, drawing your brush strokes horizontally.

Step 2: Creating the Highlands

Mix various greens and blues to form deep, muted tones for the hills.
Use a larger brush to block in the shapes of the mountains, paying close attention to the light source to add depth and shadow.
Add subtle variations in the hills with lighter and darker shades to convey texture.

Step 3: Painting the Cow

Use warm colors such as ochres and browns for the cow, emphasizing its fur's texture with directional brush strokes.
Add highlights with lighter tones to areas of the cow that would catch the light, like the tips of the fur and the horns.
Use a smaller brush for detailed features, like the eyes and nose, ensuring they are expressive and lively.

Step 4: Adding Details and Texture

With a medium brush, add details to the grassy foreground, mixing greens with yellows for vibrancy.
Introduce small strokes or dabs of color to suggest foliage and ground texture.
Create depth by layering darker tones to suggest shadows.

Step 5: Final Touches

Refine any areas needing additional attention, ensuring all elements are harmoniously balanced.
Add minor highlights or shadows to enhance realism.
Let the painting dry thoroughly before displaying.

Inspire yourself with the spirit of Glencoe as you paint, enjoying each step of bringing this stunning landscape to life.
