Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Acrylic or oil paints based on the provided palette
Brushes: flat, round, and detail
Palette for mixing colors
Water cup (for acrylics) or solvent (for oils)

Using the Paint-Your-Own Pack

The provided line drawings will guide the placement of major elements, while the artist's grid ensures proportional accuracy. Use the source painting image for color matching and brush techniques.

Step 1: Prepare Your Canvas

Lightly sketch the line drawing onto your canvas using a pencil. Use the grid version if you want to ensure everything is perfectly aligned and proportioned.
Apply a light wash of blue to the sky area with a flat brush, using a watered-down paint to create a smooth background.

Step 2: Paint the Sky

Mix white with a splash of blue to create a soft sky tone.
Apply the paint with swift, confident strokes, allowing some variation in the hue to add interest.
Add dashes of white to represent clouds, blending them gently into the sky.

Step 3: Add the Hills

Mix different shades of dark blue and green for the hills.
Using a flat brush, paint the hills from back to front, starting with the furthest mountains.
Allow the paint to dry slightly, then add highlights using lighter colors to suggest sunlight and shadow.

Step 4: Paint the River

Use a turquoise blue to fill in the river with a flat brush.
Add streaks of white and darker blue to indicate reflections and movement within the water.
Introduce warm tones on the banks with subtle mixtures of browns and oranges.

Step 5: Add Vegetation

Mix various greens for the trees and grasses.
Paint the trees using a round brush, starting with darker tones and layering lighter shades on top for highlights.
Add fine details with a thin brush for branches and grass textures.

Step 6: Final Touches

Refine any areas that need more detail or color adjustment, using the reference image to guide you.
Add small highlights or shadows to enhance depth and natural light effects.
Let your painting dry completely before displaying it.
