- For the distant land, blend muted greens and browns, capturing the hilly outline.
Foreground:
- Transition to the foreground using vibrant oranges and yellows to capture the sunlit terrain.
- Use bolder, more expressive strokes to add texture and dynamic interest.
- Incorporate dark accents with blacks and deep greens for shadows and depth.
Details and Highlights:
- Add fine details and highlights using a detail brush, focusing on blending and layering to create depth.
- Use lighter shades strategically to emphasize sunlight and reflection.
Final Touches:
- Step back and assess the overall balance and harmony of the artwork.
- Add any final details or adjustments as needed, ensuring that the painting conveys the energetic and lively essence of the original.
