Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

Imagine stepping into the tranquil beauty of Glen Tanar, Scotland, with its vast landscapes painted in vivid hues. The painting captures a serene landscape, characterized by a brilliant sky, the gentle stretch of a river, and majestic trees lining the scene. The sky is a soft blend of blues and whites, meeting the distant hills painted in muted purples and earthy tones. A lush green foreground leads your eye to the water's edge, reflecting the colors of nature. The vibrant color palette evokes a sense of calm and wonder, while the brushwork hints at a dynamic, impressionistic style, emphasizing texture and depth.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Step 1: Preparing Your Canvas

Begin by setting up your workspace with your canvas, palette, brushes, and paints. If using the artists grid version, lightly sketch the grid onto your canvas to guide your composition, making sure to align it with the grid on your reference image. Alternatively, transfer the line drawing to your canvas to provide a structural foundation.

Step 2: Painting the Sky

  1. Mix a soft blue for the sky, using white and a touch of blue from your provided palette.
  2. Apply the paint in broad, sweeping strokes to create an even base.
  3. Add in soft whites to represent clouds, blending gently for a natural look.

Step 3: Defining the Distant Hills

  1. Combine muted purples and browns to capture the distant hills.
  2. Use a smaller brush to paint the horizon line, ensuring a seamless transition from the sky to the hills.
  3. Add depth with subtle shadowing, using darker variations of your hill colors.

Step 4: Bringing the Foreground to Life

  1. Mix vibrant oranges and greens from your colour palette.
  2. Using a flat brush, apply these colors in varied, textured strokes to mimic the grassy and earthy terrain.
  3. Paint the river carefully, allowing it to reflect the sky's colors with blues and hints of white.

Step 5: Detailing the Trees

  1. For the trees, mix dark greens and earthy blacks.
  2. Use a filbert brush to paint the tree trunks and foliage, ensuring they are bold yet natural.
  3. Highlight the sunlit areas with lighter greens and yellows, adding dimension to your trees.

Step 6: Final Touches

  1. Review your painting, checking for any areas that need additional layers or details.
  2. Add final highlights or shadows as necessary to enhance depth and realism.
  3. Step back to evaluate the overall balance and harmony of the colors.
