This painting captures the serene beauty of Nairn Beach in Scotland, where the expansive sky meets the sea in a harmony of color and light. The artwork showcases a vibrant palette, combining soothing purples of the sand with striking oranges and yellows of the foliage.

The mood is tranquil yet invigorating, evoking the ethereal beauty of a coastal landscape bathed in the light of the setting sun.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Canvas or painting paper
Brushes of various sizes (large flat, medium round, small detail)
Acrylic or oil paints in the colors provided on the color wheel
Palette for mixing colors
Cup of water (for acrylics) or spirits (for oils)
Pencil or charcoal (for initial sketching)

Preparation

Set up your workspace with good lighting and access to your materials.
Study the provided source image to understand the composition and colors.
Review the line drawings and optional grid to plan your painting layout.

Using Line Drawings and Grid

The line drawings included in your pack help outline the main elements of the beach scene. The optional grid can be used to ensure composition accuracy by dividing the canvas into smaller sections, assisting you in scaling the painting correctly.

Painting Steps

Sketch the Composition:
- Use a pencil or charcoal to lightly sketch the main elements on your canvas, using the line drawing as a guide.
- Mark the horizon, key clouds, tree placements, and shoreline.
Paint the Sky:
- Mix light blues with hints of lavender from your color palette for the sky.
- Use large, broad strokes to create a smooth transition from the horizon to the upper sky.
- Incorporate hints of orange and cream to capture the setting sun effect.
Create the Distant Hills:
- Mix darker blues and purples for the distant hills.
- Apply layered strokes to convey depth and texture.
- Ensure the color subtly fades towards the base to blend with the shoreline.
Paint the Beach and Water:
- Use vibrant purples and pinks for the sand, applying horizontal strokes to emphasize the beach stretch.
- Mix blues and purples with a touch of white for the water, using smooth brushstrokes to simulate reflections.
Enhance the Foliage:
- Apply bold strokes of orange and yellow to paint the vibrant trees.
- Use smaller brushes for detailing, capturing the leaves and branches.
Add Finishing Touches:
- Refine the details in the sky, water, and foliage with smaller brushes.
- Adjust highlights and shadows, and add subtle brushstrokes to enhance movement.
Review and Adjust:
- Step back to evaluate your painting, making any necessary adjustments for balance and harmony.
- Allow the paint to fully dry before displaying.
