Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare Your Workspace:
- Set up your painting area with adequate lighting.
- Ensure you have all materials on hand, including the line drawing and the color wheel from your Paint-Your-Own Pack.
Initial Sketch:
- Use the provided line drawing or grid to lightly sketch the main outlines on your canvas or paper.
- Focus on the placement of the buildings and major elements, such as the boats and waterline.
- If using the grid, ensure your sketch aligns accurately with the guide for composition accuracy.
Block in Base Colors:
- Refer to the color wheel to mix the base colors for the buildings. Use soft pastels: pinks, greens, and creams.
- Apply these colors with broad strokes to fill in the buildings, working from lighter to darker shades.
- Focus on flat, even coverage as a base layer.
Create Reflections:
- Using a slightly darker version of the building colors, apply paint to depict the reflection in the water below each building.
- Add depth by gently blending colors for a smooth, water-like effect.
Add Details:
- Once the base layers are dry, use finer brushes to add details like windows and roof edges.
- Pay attention to the reflections and ensure they mimic the detailing above the waterline.
- Highlight the boats at the harbor with darker, contrasting colors as shown in the source image.
Final Touches:
- Revisit the painting to refine details and correct any imbalances in color or form.
- Adjust light and shadow using small brush strokes to add dimension and vibrancy.
Review and Finish:
- Take a step back to view the overall composition and ensure all elements are cohesive.
- Let the painting dry completely before framing or displaying your artwork.
