Painting Instructions

1. Background and Sky

Start by mixing a light sky blue for the horizon. Use large flat brushes to cover the upper portion of the canvas.
Blend in white for a gradient effect, adding depth and softness to the sky.

2. Sea and Coastline

Mix various shades of teal and turquoise for the sea. Use confident, sweeping strokes to apply these colors to the water area, reflecting the dynamic nature of the sea.
Add highlights using lighter blues and whites to suggest movement and light.

3. Midground Elements

Paint the hills using varied shades of green. Use a large brush to blend colors, capturing the rolling landscape.
Add darker greens and blues to create shadows and depth along the contours.

4. Farmhouse

Switch to a smaller brush for detailed work on the farmhouse. Use white mixed with hints of grey for the walls and a darker grey for the roof.
Add tiny details like windows using black or dark grey.

5. Foreground and Abstract Elements

Use a palette knife or large brush to apply bold strokes of orange and red to the foreground. This will create visual interest and energy.
Layer with additional squares and rectangles in pinks and whites, providing an abstract texture.

6. Final Touches

Review the painting for any final adjustments. Use small brushes to refine details as needed.
Add any additional highlights or shadows to enhance depth.

Allow the painting to dry thoroughly. Step back and admire your recreation of the stunning Orkney landscape, infused with your personal touch and creativity.
