Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

This captivating painting of Glen Shiel integrates the majesty of Scottish landscapes with a modern geometric twist. The composition is divided into a series of intersecting circles and rectangles, guiding the viewer through a journey of deep amber hills, muted grey-blue mountains, and a gentle, earthy foreground that subtly reflects the sky. The rich autumnal palette of warm ochres, rusts, and deep siennas contrasts beautifully with the soft greys, capturing the essence of the Highlands. Embodying an abstract style, this painting blends traditional landscape elements with a structured, contemporary design, evoking both serenity and intrigue.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas or high-quality watercolor paper
  • Acrylic or watercolor paints in the provided palette
  • Assorted brushes (flat and round)
  • Pencil for outlines
  • Eraser
  • Palette for mixing colors
  • Your Paint-Your-Own Pack with line drawings and grid

Preparation

  • Review the source painting image and color wheel in your Paint-Your-Own Pack.
  • Set up your workspace with materials and reference images accessible.
  • Decide whether to use line drawings or the grid method for composition accuracy.

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

Option 1: Line Drawings

  1. Place the line drawing beneath your canvas or paper.
  2. Use a light source to trace lightly with a pencil to maintain accuracy.

Option 2: Artist Grid

  1. Lightly sketch the grid on your canvas based on the provided version.
  2. Mark key points from the reference to guide your outlines.

Painting Steps

1. Background and Sky

  1. Mix a soft, muted grey using light blue and white. Add a touch of ochre to warm it slightly.
  2. With a wide, flat brush, apply this shade to the sky's top portion.
  3. Blend downward, fading the color into a lighter tone as it approaches the horizon.

2. Mountains

  1. Using the grey-blue mix, start shaping the distant mountains, focusing on smooth gradients.
  2. Contrast this with a slightly darker blue-grey for the details and shadows.

3. Hills and Valleys

  1. Prepare a palette of warm ochre, sienna, and rust.
  2. Apply these colors to depict the rolling hills, ensuring the colour transitions smoothly.
  3. Highlight certain areas with a more saturated rust to suggest sunlight hitting the terrain.

4. Foreground Elements

  1. Introduce deeper earth tones at the foreground to anchor the scene.
  2. Layer the colors to create subtle textures and depth.

5. Geometric Shapes

  1. Using a ruler, define the geometric shapes over the landscape.
  2. Fill these sections with solid colors from your palette, aligning with the painting's abstract theme.

Final Touches

  • Evaluate the balance of colors and adjust any sections to enhance harmony.
  • Add any fine lines or small details to emphasize the composition's geometric nature.
  • Allow the painting to dry completely and review it for any final adjustments.

By closely following these steps and utilizing the tools in your Paint-Your-Own Pack, you will create a stunning recreation of Glen Shiel, weaving the elegance of the Scottish landscape with modern artistic influences.
