Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Sandwood Bay, captured in a vibrant, abstract style. This painting uses bold colours and sweeping brushstrokes to convey the dramatic contrasts and ethereal light of the Scottish coast. The warm hues of an orange and yellow sky juxtapose the cool blues and purples of the rocky cliffs and serene water, while soft pink and cream tones blend into the foreground, adding an unusual contemporary twist. This dynamic scene invites you to explore the natural wonder and raw energy of this secluded landscape.

Palette
Cup of water

Painting Steps

1. Sky Background

Start with the sky. Use a large brush to apply a gradient blend of warm orange and yellow across the top half of your canvas.
Blend smoothly to mimic the natural transition of colours at sunset. Use the colour wheel to mix the correct shades.

2. Distant Cliffs

Apply deep blue and purple for the distant cliffs on the left and right. Use a mid-sized brush for more control.
Focus on capturing the organic shapes seen in your line drawing, observing how the light hits different parts of the cliffs.

3. Water and Reflection

For the water, use a mix of lighter blues and hints of yellow to depict reflections from the sky.
With a medium flat brush, create horizontal strokes to represent the calmness of the sea.

4. Foreground and Texture

Paint the foreground using a vibrant mix of pinks and creams, applying thicker paint for texture.
Incorporate abstract shapes and forms, as indicated in your sketches, to echo the modern feel of the artwork.

5. Final Details

Add small touches of bright orange and red to emphasize certain areas, enhancing the contrast and depth.
Check your painting against the source image, adjusting any areas as necessary to achieve the desired effect.

Using the Grid and Line Drawings

The included grid can help maintain proportions and align key elements on your canvas. Start by drawing light grid lines in pencil on your canvas, corresponding to those on your line drawing. This reference will guide placement and scale, ensuring an accurate depiction of the scene.

This guide is designed to help you bring the dramatic landscape of Sandwood Bay to life, providing a satisfying and creative painting experience. Enjoy the process, and remember to experiment with your unique artistic flair!
