Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

Imagine yourself stepping into the breathtaking landscape of Glencoe, Scotland. This painting beautifully captures the dramatic interplay of light and shadow across rugged mountains and expansive skies. The vibrant hues of orange, green, and blue dance in harmony, depicting the serene beauty of the valley. The lone figure walking towards the horizon adds a sense of scale and adventure to this majestic scene. The artist's impressionistic style, characterized by bold brushstrokes and a vivid color palette, invites you to feel the brisk air and the awe of the natural world.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Acrylic or oil paints
  • Brushes of various sizes (flat, round, detail)
  • Canvas or painting paper
  • Palette for mixing colors
  • Cup of water (for acrylics) or solvent (for oils)
  • Paper towels or a cloth

1. Preparing Your Canvas

Using the grid version of the painting included in your pack, apply a light pencil or charcoal grid to your canvas. This will assist with accurately placing key elements of the scene.

2. Sketching the Composition

Refer to the line drawing to sketch the main elements: the path leading into the valley, the figure, and the mountain outlines. Focus on positioning first, getting the proportions right with the help of the grid.

3. Blocking in Colors

  • Sky: Use a mix of light blues, incorporating hints of soft yellows and whites for the clouds.
  • Mountains: Start with darker blues and purples for the shaded areas. Add highlights with lighter blues and touches of green.
  • Valley and Foreground: Paint the land with vibrant greens and oranges, following the shapes indicated in the sketch.

4. Building Depth and Detail

  1. Sky: Layer the clouds with whites and subtle yellows. Use quick, light brushstrokes for a fluffy appearance.
  2. Mountains: Add shadow details with deeper purples. Use a dry brush technique to blend the mountain areas seamlessly into each other.
  3. Foreground Path: Apply texture using bold strokes of light ochre and orange, leaving visible brush marks to mimic rock and grass.

5. Adding the Figure

Use darker tones to outline the figure. Gradually build up highlights and shadows to give depth and dimension, ensuring it stands out against the landscape.

6. Refining Details

Incorporate fine details into the rocks and vegetation using small brushes. Pay attention to light reflections and shadows for a realistic effect.

7. Final Adjustments

Review your painting, comparing it to the source image. Make any necessary adjustments to color balance and detail. Allow your artwork to fully dry before displaying.

Using the Colour Wheel

The included colour wheel highlights the palette used in this painting. Utilize it to ensure your mixes match the vibrant tones and natural gradients seen in the source image.

Enjoy your artistic journey in recreating the tranquil yet dynamic landscape of Glencoe. Let each brushstroke transport you to this magnificent Scottish valley.
