Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The Glen Nevis painting captures the breathtaking beauty of Scotland's highlands. With vibrant hues of blues, purples, and greens, the painting depicts a serene valley surrounded by towering mountains under a soft sky. A river gently winds through lush meadows, adorned with clusters of colorful bushes and trees. The energetic brushstrokes and bold color contrasts give the painting a lively yet tranquil atmosphere, demonstrating an impressionistic style that beautifully captures the natural landscape's essence.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas or paper included in your Paint-Your-Own Pack
  • Paint brushes: small, medium, large
  • Acrylic or oil paints: refer to the included colour wheel
  • Palette for mixing paints
  • Water (if using acrylics) or solvent (if using oils)
  • The reference image and grid/line drawing provided

Using the Line Drawing and Grid

The line drawing and grid are provided to help you accurately transfer the composition to your canvas:

  1. Use the grid version to ensure your proportions and placements are correct. Divide your canvas into matching grid squares with light pencil lines.
  2. Refer to the line drawing to sketch out the basic shapes and outlines on your grid.

Painting Process

1. Background Sky and Mountains

  1. Mix a light sky blue using white with a touch of blue.
  2. Apply broad strokes to cover the sky area, blending into a slightly darker blue towards the top.
  3. Mix purples and blues for the mountains. Apply the darkest shades for the mountains furthest back, using lighter shades for those in the foreground to create depth.

2. Midground with River and Meadows

  1. Use greens and yellows for the lush meadows. Start with lighter greens toward the river banks and get darker as you move to the foreground.
  2. Paint the river using a light blue mixed with white. Add shades of purple and green reflections along the edges.

3. Foreground and Trees

  1. Mix vibrant greens and reds for the trees. Use the reference image to place clusters of trees, applying darker and lighter shades for dimension.
  2. Create contrast by carefully adding highlights with lighter tones where sunlight hits foliage.

4. Final Touches and Details

  1. Add bright orange and pink for flowers in the foreground, starting with larger masses of color and refining the shapes.
  2. Enhance shadows and highlights with additional layers of appropriate colors on trees and meadows for depth.
  3. Refine edges and details as needed, using fine brushes for precision.

Conclusion

Step back frequently to assess your painting's progress. Use the reference image to keep your placement and colors consistent. Don't hesitate to experiment with blending and brush techniques to capture the vibrant and dynamic nature of the landscape. Enjoy the process and bring your version of Glen Nevis to life!
