The painting of Durness Beach captures the serene and dynamic beauty of Scotland's coastline. Waves gently dance towards the shore, and the tranquil sea extends to meet a vivid blue sky speckled with cottony clouds. Rolling hills frame the background, while rugged rocky formations add dramatic contrast to the lush greenery. The palette is a harmonious blend of cool blues, soft greens, and warm sandy tones, reflecting the natural beauty and the playful light of the coastal setting. The style of the painting celebrates lively brushwork and a keen attention to detail, inviting viewers into a scene brimming with life and movement.

Painting Steps

1. Background Sky and Clouds

Mix light blues and whites to create the sky. Start from the top of the canvas, applying the colors using broad strokes.
Add depth by slightly darkening the blue near the top edge and lightening it towards the horizon.
For the clouds, use a clean brush with white and hints of light grey, softly blending the edges into the sky while maintaining their fluffy shape.

2. Hills and Distant Land

Use the provided color palette to mix greens and purples for the hills. Paint the hills using softer brushwork to mimic distance.
For the distant land, utilize muted shades of blue and grey. Blend them slightly to maintain a sense of depth and distance.

3. Ocean Waves

Refer to the source image for the flow of waves. Mix various shades of blue and green.
Use curving strokes to capture the movement and energy. Pay attention to the play of light by adding highlights with lighter colors along the wave crests.

4. Rocky Formations

Use dark blues, purples, and touches of black. Begin by outlining the rocks, using angular strokes to capture their ruggedness.
Add lighter colors on one side to represent the effect of light and shadow.

5. Sandy Beach

Mix warm sandy tones, incorporating yellows and light browns.
Apply these with long horizontal strokes, highlighting ripples and textures using the provided line drawing as a guide.
Add finer details of small rocks and shadows using darker tones with a finer brush.

Final Touches

Take a step back and examine your painting. Add any necessary highlights or shadows, ensuring cohesion throughout the piece. Let your artwork dry completely before handling.
