Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

St Cyrus Beach in Scotland is a breathtaking stretch where the sky and ocean meet the land in a dance of colors. The painting captures a vibrant seascape, utilizing warm oranges and pinks, contrasted with cool blues and purples. The brushwork is broad and expressive, conveying the expansive skies and sweeping sands in an impressionistic style. This piece invites the viewer into the serene yet dynamic landscape, highlighting the beauty of Scotland's natural coastlines.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Canvas (size of your choice)
Acrylic paints or oil paints (Recommended colors: sky blue, ultramarine blue, orange, pink, yellow, white, black)
Paintbrushes of varying sizes (flat and round)
Palette
Water (for acrylics) or turpentine (for oils)
Palette knife (optional)

Using the Line Drawings and Artist Grid

The included line drawings and artist grid are tools to help map out the composition accurately. Trace or lightly sketch these onto your canvas using pencil or transfer paper to guide your painting.

Step 1: Prepare Your Canvas

Ensure your canvas is properly primed. Set up your workspace and arrange your materials for easy accessibility.

Step 2: Sketch the Composition

Using the line drawing from the Paint-Your-Own Pack, lightly sketch the key elements— the horizon, cliffs, and some key wave patterns. You can also use the artist grid to ensure proportions and placement are correct.

Step 3: Paint the Sky

Mix a light blue color using a combination of sky blue and white.
With a flat brush, apply the blue to the upper part of the canvas, leaving some areas for clouds.
Blend small amounts of white and a touch of light yellow to add depth and variation to the sky, using broad, horizontal strokes.

Step 4: Add the Sea

Mix ultramarine blue with touches of white to create the ocean color.
Paint the sea near the horizon line, blending into the lower part of the sky. Allow the color to gently fade into the horizon.
Add darker blue shades near the shore to suggest depth.

Step 5: Paint the Sand and Cliffs

Mix warm tones using orange, pink, and yellow for the sand.
Apply these colors with broad strokes, allowing them to blend subtly for a natural look.
For the cliffs, use darker mixes of orange and black to create shadows and form.

Step 6: Refine Details

Add fine details to the waves and reflections using a smaller brush.
Use a palette knife for texture on the cliffs, if desired.
Use pure white to highlight sections of the waves and cliffs, adding a sense of sunlight.

Step 7: Final Touches

Review your painting and make any final adjustments. Add small touches of color for added detail, and ensure transitions between colors are smooth and consistent with the impressionistic style.

Allow the painting to dry completely, and enjoy your tailored recreation of St Cyrus Beach!
