Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Loch Leven in Scotland is a breathtaking portrayal of a serene landscape, capturing the enchanting beauty of nature. The composition invites the viewer to wander along a winding path that leads the eye towards the tranquil waters of the loch, embraced by majestic mountains. The sky is adorned with billowing clouds, casting soft shadows over the verdant hills. A vibrant floral foreground adds a pop of color, contrasting with the cool blues and purples of the distant mountains. The artistic style balances realism with impressionistic elements, creating a harmonious blend of detail and atmospheric effect.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Acrylic paints from the included color palette
Brushes of various sizes (flat, round, and detail)
Canvas or paper
Pencil and eraser for preliminary sketching
Palette for mixing colors
Cup of water and cloth for cleaning brushes

Preparation

Study the Source Image: Begin by examining the source painting image to familiarize yourself with its composition and color palette. Notice the contrast between the floral foreground and the calm loch.
Use the Grid and Line Drawing: Utilize the optional artist's grid and line drawings provided in the PDF pack to map out the basic structure and proportions of the painting on your canvas.

Painting Steps

Sketch the Composition: Using a light pencil, lightly sketch the main elements onto your canvas. Focus on key features such as the path, the loch, and the distant mountains, using the grid to ensure accuracy.
Background and Sky:
- Begin by applying a base layer of blue to the sky using a large flat brush. Gradually blend in white to create clouds, adding touches of pink to mimic the soft, warm glow depicted in the painting.
Painting the Mountains:
- Mix purples and blues for the distant mountains. Use a medium round brush to create the rugged shapes, allowing the colors to softly transition into one another.
- Add highlights and shadows to give depth, referencing the source image for light direction.
The Loch:
- Paint the loch using a mixture of blue and green, allowing the colors to reflect the sky and surrounding hills. Use horizontal strokes to mimic the water's calm surface.
Foreground Foliage and Path:
- Use a palette knife and smaller brushes to apply vibrant greens mixed with yellows and pinks for the foreground flora. Use stippling and dabbing techniques to create texture.
- For the path, blend browns and ochres, using a round brush to define the winding trail that draws the viewer into the painting.
Details and Finishing Touches:
- Add final details to the trees and flowers using small detail brushes. Incorporate contrasting colors for shadows and highlights to enhance depth.
- Step back frequently to assess the overall balance and make any necessary adjustments.
