Using the Line Drawings and Artist's Grid

The included line drawings and artist's grid in your Paint-Your-Own Pack provide a framework to ensure composition accuracy. Use these elements to lightly sketch the main outlines on your canvas with a pencil or thinned-out paint, guided by the source painting image.

Painting Steps

  1. Prepare Your Workspace: Arrange your materials within easy reach and ensure your canvas is primed and ready.
  2. Sketch the Composition: Using the line drawing or grid, lightly outline the main elements of the painting - the mountains, horizon, foreground, and key trees.
  3. Start with the Sky and Background:
    • Mix light blue with white for the sky. Apply with a flat brush in smooth horizontal strokes.
    • Blend in some soft white for clouds and texture.
  4. Block in the Mountains:
    • Use a mix of blues and greens for the distant mountains, adding texture and shadows with darker tones.
    • For the prominent peak, mix in some pink and orange to reflect the lighting, using expressive, bold strokes for texture.
  5. Develop the Midground:
    • Incorporate various greens and yellows to represent the lush valleys. Use a round brush to blend and create a natural flow.
    • Add hints of darker tones for shadows between trees and hills.
  6. Focus on the Foreground:
    • Use vibrant yellows and oranges to add warmth and depth to the front elements. A palette knife can add texture here.
    • Lighten the lower area with whites and pale blues to create balance.
  7. Add Detail and Texture:
    • For trees and bushes, use a detail brush to add sharper lines and textures with darker greens and blacks.
    • Consider using a palette knife for addition of impasto details in the midground and foreground.
  8. Finishing Touches:
    • Refine any edges and blend areas as necessary for cohesion.
    • Step back and examine the overall composition, making adjustments to color and contrast as needed.
