Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas
  • Paintbrushes (various sizes)
  • Palette knife
  • Source painting image, line drawings, sketches, and artists grid (provided in your Paint-Your-Own Pack)

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

The line drawings and grid are essential in ensuring composition accuracy. Use them to map out primary elements such as the mountains, trees, and the glowing sky. Align your canvas with the grid to maintain proportions as you work.

Painting Steps

  1. Sketch the Composition:
    • Using the grid, lightly sketch the main elements onto your canvas with a pencil.
    • Ensure the mountains, valley, and patches of trees are positioned correctly.
  2. Base Layer:
    • Begin with a thin wash of blue for the sky and deep brown for the lower ground to establish the initial tones.
    • Apply a light green wash over the areas designated for the valley and trees.
  3. Building the Sky and Mountains:
    • Mix variations of blue and purple for the mountains, applying with broad strokes.
    • Layer the warm orange and yellow tones skywards, blending softly into the blues.
    • Use a palette knife to create the rugged texture of the mountains.
  4. Painting the Valley:
    • Introduce brighter greens and yellows to define the lush valley.
    • Use varied brushstrokes to simulate foliage and the undulation of the landscape.
  5. Details and Highlights:
    • Add pops of light with white and yellow highlights to mimic sunlight kissing the landscape.
    • Create trees with a combination of dark green and brown, dabbing lightly with a small brush to add texture.
  6. Final Touches:
    • Review your painting for areas where contrasts can be heightened to add dimension.
    • Gently blend any harsh lines to maintain the painting’s serene atmosphere.
