Step-by-Step Painting Instructions

  1. Background:
    • Mix a light sky blue using the color wheel. Begin painting the sky, gradually blending into slightly darker tones towards the top.
    • Use sweeping horizontal strokes to delineate the distant clouds, using a mix of white and gray-blue.
  2. Mountains:
    • Begin with the farthest mountain on the horizon. Use darker blues and purples, adding highlights with lighter tones.
    • Progress to the nearer mountains, employing darker blues with subtle green tints to suggest forested areas.
  3. Lake:
    • Duplicate the sky tones in the water, reinforcing the reflection with gentle horizontal strokes.
    • Introduce a few ripples with slighter darker shades of blue and white highlights.
  4. Foreground:
    • Mix vibrant yellows and oranges for the grasses and wildflowers. Use expressive, loose strokes to capture the movement.
    • Add small touches of red and pink to suggest flowering plants or patches of exposed earth.
    • Layer different colors to build texture and depth, incorporating darker greens and browns for shadowed areas.

Finishing Touches

  1. Details: Add any final details to the mountains and foreground to enhance realism and depth.
  2. Highlights & Reflections: Revisit the water and areas requiring highlights, using white to accentuate reflections and add contrast.
  3. Review & Adjust: Step back frequently to assess your painting's balance and make any necessary adjustments to color or composition.
