Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Acrylic or Oil Paints (Refer to the color wheel in your pack for palette guidance)
  • Canvas or painting paper
  • Pencil for sketching outlines
  • Brushes of various sizes
  • Palette for mixing colors
  • Water and cloth for cleaning brushes

Preparation

  1. Choose your workspace with good lighting and assemble your materials.
  2. Study the source image along with the line drawings and sketches provided in your Paint-Your-Own Pack.
  3. Use the optional artist's grid included to help with composition accuracy, matching the grid on the reference image to your canvas.

Sketching the Outline

  2. Focus on key elements: the rolling hills, clusters of trees, and the skyline. Ensure proportions align with the grid.

Blocking in Colors

  1. Sky: Start with the sky. Mix light blues with touches of white and yellow for dynamic cloud textures.
  2. Background Hills: Use deep blues and greens. Play with tones to suggest depth and shadow.
  3. Midground: Lay down vibrant yellows and greens to represent fields and distant trees.
  4. Foreground: Apply vibrant pinks, oranges, and yellows, blending circular patterns to create a lively foreground.

Adding Details

  1. Using smaller brushes, refine the textures of the hills and foreground patterns. Layer light over dark to add dimension.
  2. Introduce more subtle shadows on the hills using deeper hues from your palette.
  3. Add delicate highlights to the sky and hills to replicate light reflection.

Final Touches
