Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Brushes of various sizes (flat and round)
Canvas or painting paper
Palette for mixing colors
Water and paper towels
Source painting image and line drawings from the PDF pack

1. Setting Up

Canvas Preparation: Ensure your canvas is primed and ready. Tape the edges if you prefer clean, straight edges.
Using Grid and Line Drawings: Use the grid version of the painting for accurate composition. Transfer the main outlines onto your canvas using light pencil marks.

2. Background and Sky

Mixing Colors: Use light blues and soft pinks for the sky, blending them gently to create a gradient effect.
Application: Begin with a large flat brush to cover the sky area, using smooth horizontal strokes for blending.

3. Distant Hills

Color Choices: Mix muted purples and blues for the distant hills.
Technique: With a medium round brush, apply the colors to form the gentle outlines of the hills, ensuring soft edges for a distant look.

4. Harbour and Water Reflection

Base Layer: Paint the water using a combination of blues and purples, reflecting the sky's tones.
Reflection Details: Use the source image to mimic the reflections of the houses and boats with bolder colors.
Blending: With a clean, slightly damp brush, gently blend the reflections for a realistic water effect.

5. Houses and Foreground

Color Application: Introduce warm oranges and yellows on the houses, using bold strokes to capture the sunlight hitting their surfaces.
Details and Shadows: Mix darker shades of purple and blue to add depth and shadows, especially under roofs and along walls.
Foreground Rocks: Use darker purples and oranges to create the rugged texture of the rocks in the foreground.

6. Adding Details

Boat Details: Carefully use small brushes to add details to the boats with contrasting colors like red and green.
Final Touches: Add any last highlights or shadows, refining the textures and edges based on the source painting.

7. Review and Final Adjustments

Step back and assess your painting for balance in color and composition.
Add any necessary touch-ups to enhance depth or color vibrancy.
Let the painting dry completely before removing any tape from the edges.
