Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

This vibrant painting of Glencoe, Scotland, captures the breathtaking beauty of the Highlands with a modern, expressive style. The artwork features towering mountains bathed in cool blue and green hues, creating a majestic backdrop. The foreground is dominated by a winding path that leads the viewer’s eye deeper into the valley, accented by splashes of earthy tones and dynamic brushstrokes. Two figures, skillfully painted with contrasting colors, journey along the path, adding a sense of scale and narrative to the composition.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Acrylic paints or oils: Refer to the included color wheel for the palette.
  • Canvas (pre-outlined with optional grid from PDF pack).
  • Brushes of various sizes (flat, round, and detail brushes).
  • Palette, water (for acrylics), and cleaning materials.

Using the Grid and Line Drawings

The provided line drawings and grid help to maintain the composition accuracy. Use these tools to sketch the initial outline of the landscape and figures onto your canvas. The grid will keep proportions correct and assist in placing elements accurately.

Step 1: Background and Sky

  1. Mix Colors: Begin by mixing light greens and blues for the sky. Use the color wheel to find the exact shades.
  2. Paint the Sky: Using a wide flat brush, apply a thin layer of paint across the top of the canvas. Blend gently for a smooth transition between colors.

Step 2: Mountains

  1. Blending Blues: Mix deeper blues and greens for the distant mountains. Reference the color wheel for guidance.
  2. Define Shapes: With a flat brush, outline the angular shapes of the mountains. Apply darker tones to the slopes to create depth.
  3. Highlight Peaks: Add lighter blues and whites to the mountain tops for highlights and snowcaps.

Step 3: Foreground Landscape

  1. Earthy Base: Use mixes of yellow, green, and brown to create the grassy fields and path. Use broad strokes to cover larger areas.
  2. Pathway Details: Paint the winding path with a mix of lighter hues. Use a smaller brush for edges and details.
  3. Add Texture: Incorporate various greens using expressive brushstrokes to depict grass and foliage.

Step 4: Figures

  1. Outline and Base: Sketch the figures along the path from the line drawing. Fill in base colors using bold, contrasting hues.
  2. Detail the Figures: Add shadows and highlights to give volume to the clothing and accessories.

Step 5: Final Touches

  1. Refine Shadows: Deepen shadows along the path and around the figures to add contrast.
  2. Adjust Highlights: Add subtle highlights where light naturally hits the landscape for enhanced realism.
  3. Review and Enhance: Step back and assess the balance of colors and composition. Adjust as needed.

Enjoy the process and embrace the expressive style of the painting. The goal is to capture the essence of Glencoe, using your unique brushwork and color interpretation.
