Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting captures the serene beauty of River Lossie in Scotland with an abstract, modernist style. The landscape is simplified into flowing shapes and harmonious colors, creating a soothing, rhythmic composition. The cool palette features shades of blue, green, and white, symbolizing the tranquil river and the lush surrounding landscape. The use of bold lines and curves elegantly guides the viewer's eye along the river’s path, evoking a sense of calm and continuity.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Canvas or painting surface
Acrylic paints (as noted in the color palette)
Brushes: flat, round, and liner
Palette for mixing colors
Water container
Paper towels or cloth for cleaning brushes
Painter’s tape (optional)

Preparation

Set Up Your Workspace: Arrange your materials in a comfortable, well-lit space. Ensure your canvas is secure and at an appropriate height for painting.
Review the Painting Pack: Familiarize yourself with the source image, line drawings, and sketches included in your Paint-Your-Own Pack.
Select the Grid or Line Drawing: Choose either the artist's grid or the line drawing version to assist with composition. The grid will help maintain proportions, while the line drawing offers a direct guide for outlines.

Painting Instructions

1. Sketch the Composition

Grid Method:
1. Lightly draw a grid on your canvas using a pencil, matching the grid in your pack.
2. Transfer key lines and shapes from the grid version of the painting onto the canvas.
Line Drawing Method:
1. Use the provided lines to sketch the major forms and lines onto your canvas.

2. Begin with the Background

Underpaint: Apply a thin layer of white or a light blue tone to help colors blend smoothly in subsequent layers.
Sky and Upper Areas: Use a blend of white and various shades of pale blue. Use a flat brush for smooth application.

3. Paint the River and Surrounding Landscape

River Path: Apply a combination of soft blues and greens. Use curved strokes to reflect the gentle flow of the river.
Fields and Hills: Create layers using dark greens and subtle blues. Play with gradients to depict depth and distance.
Trees and Horizon: Use a small round brush to add texture to the distant trees with varying shades of green.

4. Finalize and Detail

Line Work: Use a liner brush with dark paint to redefine the bold lines between shapes, ensuring clarity and contrast.
Refinement: Adjust colors and shapes, enhancing the balance and harmony of the composition.
Final Touches: Add highlights or deepen shadows where needed to add dimension.

5. Review and Adjust

Step back and examine the painting from a distance. Make any necessary adjustments to balance and color.
Allow the painting to dry completely before displaying or storing.
