Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Acrylic or oil paints (use the provided colour palette)
Brushes: flat, round, and detail brushes
Canvas or canvas board
Palette for mixing colours
Water or solvent for cleaning brushes
Paper towels or rags

Preparation

Set up your workspace with good lighting and all materials within reach.
Review the provided source painting image, line drawings, and artist grid.
Select the palette colours as shown in the included colour wheel.
Use the line drawings to sketch the basic outline on your canvas. If using the grid, align it to ensure composition accuracy.

Sky and Mountains

Begin with the golden sky. Mix a vibrant yellow shade and apply it using wide, sweeping strokes to cover the upper portion of the canvas.
Blend slightly with hints of warm orange nearer to the horizon for depth.
Paint the mountains using shades of blue and subtle hints of red, focusing on capturing the layering effect and distant mistiness.

Water and Reflections

For the water, use a mix of turquoise and hints of blue. Apply broad horizontal strokes to mimic the water’s movement.
Add lighter highlights where the sun reflects off the surface, blending softly.

Village and Foreground

Paint the buildings with distinct colours - bright yellows for rooftops and whites for walls. Ensure each building stands out yet complements its surroundings.
Use a detail brush for windows and roofs, applying bolder colors like orange and brown.
Craft the foreground with various greens, adding darker tones for shadows and lighter tones for highlights.
Include details like the trees and shoreline features, adding texture with expressive brushwork.

Final Touches

Revisit the painting to enhance contrast or add any fine details using smaller brushes.
Let your painting dry completely before displaying or framing it.

Using the Grid and Line Drawings

The artist grid helps maintain composition accuracy by breaking down the image into smaller sections. Refer to it regularly to check proportions.
The line drawings serve as a guide for positioning key elements and structure, providing a solid foundation for your painting.

Enjoy the process and let your creativity flow as you recreate this stunning scene of Plockton!
