Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

St Cyrus Beach in Scotland captivates with its sweeping horizons under dramatic skies. This painting combines bold and soft brushstrokes to depict the dynamic relationship between land, sea, and sky. The sky is portrayed with a gradient of dark, swirling greys and soft blues, conveying a sense of movement and depth. The shoreline is a vibrant interplay of sandy beige, warm orange, and refreshing greens. The use of watercolor techniques brings out the translucent, flowing nature of the scene. This artwork embodies an impressionistic style, capturing the essence of St Cyrus Beach through expressive color and form.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Acrylic or watercolor paints (as shown in the color palette)
Brushes of varying sizes: large flat, medium round, and small detail brush
Watercolor paper or canvas
Pencil and eraser
Palette
Water cup and paper towels

Preparation

Set up your workspace with all materials within easy reach.
Examine the color wheel included in your pack and familiarize yourself with the palette used in the painting.
Review the line drawings or grid sketches provided. These will help you map out your painting accurately.

Using the Line Drawings/Grid

Position the line drawing over your canvas and lightly sketch the outlines. If using the grid, start by drawing a grid on both your canvas and reference. Then transfer each section, focusing on accuracy and proportion.

Painting Steps

Step 1: The Sky

Background Wash: Start with the large flat brush, apply a light wash of the soft blue in the top right corner.
Dark Sky: Mix dark grey with a touch of blue. With broad brushstrokes, paint the swirling clouds. Allow the colors to blend slightly for a natural look.
Details: Use the medium round brush to add darker accents, giving depth and movement to the clouds.

Step 2: The Sea

Base Layer: Use a medium-sized brush with a rich blue to paint the sea. Maintain a horizon line for waterscape continuity.
Depth and Highlights: Add deeper blue for shadows and a white touch for highlights where light reflects off the water.

Step 3: The Shoreline

Beach Sand: Mix beige with a hint of orange. Apply in broad, fluid strokes to capture the sandy terrain.
Grass and Vegetation: Layer shades of green using the medium round brush. Add darker shades for shadows.
Details and Texture: Use a small detail brush to emphasize texture and fine details in the vegetation.

Finishing Touches

Step back and assess your painting. Ensure colors are balanced and details are cohesive.
Make final adjustments, such as enhancing contrast in clouds or highlights on water.

Congratulations! Your rendition of St Cyrus Beach should now capture the striking qualities of the original artwork. Enjoy displaying your finished piece, which now reflects a personal connection to the scenic beauty of Scotland.
