Using Line Drawings: Transfer the line drawing provided in your Paint-Your-Own Pack onto your canvas. Use graphite paper if needed.
Using the Grid: Alternatively, utilize the artist's grid to ensure accurate proportions. Sketch the major shapes, such as the hills and the field lines, with light pencil marks.
Mix a light sky blue with a hint of white. Apply it across the upper part of the canvas to block in the sky, using horizontal strokes for a smooth gradient.
Add a touch of yellow to the corners to reflect the warm light of the setting sun.
Color Mix: Combine deep blue and dark green from the palette for the hills. You may add a hint of brown for depth.
Field Color: Create a rich golden yellow by blending yellow and a touch of orange.
Use white mixed with a hint of blue to illustrate the stream meandering through the field.
Flowers and Textures: Use the color wheel to mix a vibrant yellow-orange for the wildflowers.
Enjoy the process and capture the enchanting spirit of Glencoe in your masterpiece!
