Sketch scene - draw the chateau quite precisely but the background very loosely. Paint in a pale wash of raw sienna - DRY |
|
We are now going to paint in the whole painting wet-in-wet except the building. Start at the top with the sky cobalt+ prussian (not too much prussian!) add in some raw sienna for the background hills and trees and some cobalt and raw sienna for the refections in the lake. Keep the line of the building reflection in line with the actual building. Try to avoid any strong lines and note the colour is still quite light - tone 2 |
|
Add in some darker tones for the mountains paint roughly getting some dry brush effects, using fingers to push the paint around. Add some dark tones cobalt + burnt sienna for the left side foreground. Keep your strokes horizontal. paint in vertical strokes for the chateau window reflections. |
