Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

The painting of Lunan Bay captures the breathtaking beauty of Scotland’s coastline in an abstract, contemporary style. The sweeping expanse of golden sands meets the rolling waves, rendered in soft blues and whites, creating a sense of serene movement. Vivid yellows and earthy tones dominate the foreground, suggesting the vibrant energy of the beach's dunes. The contrasting colors of the landscape guide your eye effortlessly from the bright sands to the distant, muted hills beneath a calming, overcast sky. The artist’s masterful use of bold brushstrokes and dynamic composition evokes both the tranquility and vibrancy of this stunning natural scene.

Preparation

Set up your workspace with good lighting and organize your materials.
Review the line drawing and grid versions provided in your Paint-Your-Own Pack. Decide if you will use the grid to transfer the outline to your canvas for accurate composition.
Lightly sketch the major outlines on your canvas, using either the freehand sketching or the grid method for guidance.
Set out your color palette based on the provided color wheel to match the painting's palette.

Painting Process

1. Sky and Sea

Begin with the sky, using a mix of light greys and blues. Apply smooth, horizontal strokes for an overcast feel.
Transition into the sea with soft, gradient blues. Use gentle, horizontal brushstrokes to depict the water's calm movement.
Add white highlights to the waves with a fine brush to create a sense of depth and texture.

2. Beach

Mix warm peach and light sand colors. Use broad strokes to fill in the expansive sandy beach area, capturing its soft texture.
Add gentle shadows with a slightly darker peach tone to suggest shifts in the sand.

3. Foreground Dunes

Use a vibrant yellow for the dunes, applying thick, expressive strokes. Consider using a palette knife for texture.
Blend in earthy greens and light browns to add dimension and contour to the dunes.

4. Hills

For the distant hills, mix greens with dark tones. Create barely-there outlines using light, horizontal strokes to give the impression of distant land.

5. Finishing Touches

Review your work, ensuring your colors and lines are harmonious and reflect the initial inspiration.
Make any necessary adjustments or add additional highlights to enhance depth.
Allow the painting to dry completely.

Using the Line Drawings and Grid

Utilize the line drawings to understand the basic structure and composition. If you choose to use the grid, lightly draw a grid on both the image and your canvas to aid in transferring the image with proportionate accuracy. This technique is especially helpful for capturing the complex elements such as the rolling dunes and overlapping waves.

Remember to enjoy the creative process and feel free to add your personal artistic touch as you progress. Happy painting!
