Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

  • Canvas or high-quality paper
  • Acrylic paints (refer to included color wheel)
  • Brushes of various sizes
  • Palette for mixing colors
  • Water cup for cleaning brushes
  • Paper towels or cloth

Using the Provided Line Drawings and Grid

The line drawings and optional artist's grid included in your pack are designed to assist with composition accuracy. Begin by placing the line drawing over your canvas as a guide. If using the grid, lightly sketch the grid on your canvas with a pencil to correspond with the pack, ensuring accurate placement of key elements.

Painting Instructions

  1. Background Sky:
    • Mix a vibrant orange with a touch of pink for the sky.
    • Using a wide brush, apply this color in broad strokes across the top of the canvas, blending downwards.
  2. Buildings and Horizon:
    • For the mid-ground, use a subtle mixture of light blue and grey for the horizon.
    • Paint the buildings with bold whites and reds, using clean, confident brushstrokes.
    • Outline the roofs with a dark, contrasting color to define their structure.
  3. Water Reflection:
    • Apply the same colors used for the buildings and sky to the water area, reflecting them in a mirror-like manner.
    • Blend softly with shades of pink and blue to mimic rippled water.
  4. Boats:
    • Use deep blues and reds to paint the boats, adding contrast against the lighter water.
    • Detail the masts and hulls with fine brushes.
  5. Final Touches:
    • Add highlights and shadows to enhance depth using lighter and darker hues of each main color.
    • Step back and assess for any areas needing refinement.
