Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting captures the breathtaking beauty of Achmelvich Beach in Scotland. This serene landscape is brought to life with vibrant hues and bold brushstrokes, showcasing a glowing sunset over the tranquil waters. Soft purples, pinks, and oranges blend seamlessly in the sky, while the distant mountains are shrouded in cool blues and purples. The reflection of the sun in the water contrasts with the rich colors of the foreground, composed of rocks and grassy dunes in blues and greens. The artistic style is impressionistic, focusing on light, color, and movement to convey the emotion of the scene.

Using Line Drawings and Grid

The line drawings and optional artist's grid provided in your pack can assist you in accurately plotting the composition on your canvas. If you're using the grid:

  1. Align the grid version on your canvas.
  2. Lightly sketch the main outlines, focusing on key elements such as the horizon, mountains, and key rocks.

Painting the Sky

  1. Start with the sky using light purples and pinks. Use wide horizontal strokes to capture the sunset's gradient.
  2. Blend in soft oranges near the sun, creating a glowing effect.
  3. Use the edge of a flat brush to define the sun, using pale yellows and whites.

Painting the Water

  1. Mix a light blue and fill in the water area, following the contours from the line drawing.
  2. Add reflective highlights using a mixture of white and light pink to mimic the sun's reflection.
  3. Softly blend these colors to enhance the water's sheen.

Painting the Mountains

  1. Using dark blues and purples, outline the distant mountains.
  2. Vary the shades slightly to give depth and texture, focusing more shadow on the lower slopes.

Foreground and Rocks

  1. Switch to greens and blues for the foreground, beginning with the grassy dunes. Apply bold strokes for texture.
  2. Add the rocks using deep blues and purples. Highlight edges with lighter shades for dimension.
  3. Ensure contrast between the foreground and background to guide the viewer's eye through the painting.

Finishing Touches

  1. Revisit any areas to enhance colors, ensuring they are vibrant and well-blended.
  2. Fine-tune details with a small detail brush, such as the edges of rocks or subtle highlights in the water.
  3. Step back and assess the final composition, making any necessary adjustments.
