Draw and Paint a Farm at dusk. Line and Wash watercolor tutorial. Peter Sheeler

[@lovdolls]

I have just started in watercolors here in Dec 22 at age 81. I have to say I have been more successful with your drawings that anyone else. I love this style it suits me and I can actually do it where as before this I could not draw a duck. Thank you for the tutorials you put out I am getting so much out of them.

[@innfield8836]

You and me both ... in my case at 74. I hope you're having fun with it.

[@GeorgeGossland]

The whole picture is fantastic, but the sky is almost photographic. Thank you for putting all these videos on you tube. Like many others, I learn something every time I watch, and paint. Please keep going.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Very kind words. Greatly appreciated. Peter :)

[@hemmay]

I'm captivated by your tutorials and thanks to you my paintings are getting better! Thanks Peter.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much. That is what I like to hear :)

[@hemmay]

Of course being red-green colour blind doesn't help. I could carry on painting tree trunks green and the leaves brown (as I see the colours) and call it artistic licence but thanks to you showing what colours to use and, importantly, how to mix them is such a help. Thank you again.

[@debbiesanimalartwork]

I agree with the below comments of Deborah. Your art is 'simple', uncomplicated....detailed and so relaxing to watch. I am again so inspired. Watercolour is not easy....but i'm going to try again! God bless!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much. Always nice to hear I've inspired :)

[@vima8680]

@@PeterSheelerart Peter, as a trained architect I must tell you that I love your line work! I have been doing waterclours for a long time but now tying to get out of the "box". Thank you for the great tutorials for me they are the best!!!

[@deborahpresson477]

Beautiful! Your videos have taught me a lot about perspective and as crazy as it seems.... they have also taught me about loosening up despite the fact that your paintings reflect a lot of detail. Thank you Peter!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much Deborah. Always nice to hear I'm helping in some way :)

[@julietpang]

The best art video channel so far. Love your work and the clarity of information on materials. Thank you! 👍🏼

[@PeterSheelerart]

Very kind words Juliet. Greatly appreciated. Peter :)

[@lvmylord54]

I mostly paint in Acrylic but have been trying to improve on my watercolor skill (if I have any). Anyway, just tonight ran across your videos and tried to paint along with you. It was fun, but honestly, I mostly enjoy just watching you and other artists do such amazing work. So relaxing that I forget to paint! Thank you.

Tammy Hickey Right!?!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thoughtful comments Tammy. Thank you :)

[@kashivishwanath7603]

What a lovely painting. The sketching was fantastic. Beautifully painted landscape and shadows

[@fluffyfish308]

You have captured the light fantastically.

[@naomipraamsma2219]

I love how your videos make me feel like I can do this - thank you for sharing them!

[@abhinavsharma225]

more than art, it was a journey , many thanks Peter

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thoughtful comments. Thank you :)

[@FLYINGWARRIOR19661]

Love it, you take it step by step and make it doable...when i get so e time i will give it a whirl. Thank you.

[@jamesshepherd7727]

Thanks so much for the videos. I have learned so much watching you. Line and wash has become my favorite way to watercolor. It combines my love of drawing with the color of the washes. Thanks again.

[@maureenjohnson9619]

Amazing control of your pen, every stroke is so intentional. Thank you for sharing!

[@DaroeSeven]

From what I've seen of yours, I could watch you draw telephone/cable lines for days. Always my favourite parts.

[@DaroeSeven]

Also you're a fellow Canadian so you already ascended into ultra mega badassery tier. Your art is so affordable, next paycheck I'm nabbing something for my collection!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much. So glad you enjoy them. I have a tendency to include them wherever I can :)

[@gwogods53]

By simply watching you sketch and paint, I’ve learned a great deal about color and shadow and how to add depth to my paintings. Thank you!

[@georgepurchase3441]

Your choice of subject matter just seems to tug at my memory. Thank you and please keep producing these gems.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much George. Always appreciated :)

[@juliewalker3112]

Thankyou again for sharing your skill with us. I do like this particular drawing and am definitely going to give this one a go!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Wonderful! Have fun

[@drshabnamarfath77]

Wonderful job sir I had almost given up watercolor painting but now I'm back n enjoy doing pen n wash technique. U are a great teacher . God bless your hands.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much Shanam. Makes it all worthwhile for me :) Peter

[@julieandrews730]

I absolutely love this painting. It popped up on my YT and I had to watch. 😅

[@JoanKentBible]

Thank you so much for your lovely drawings. Your beautiful demonstrations really encourage me to have a go. Perhaps it is never too late. It is so much better to learn from a master than to think we have to re-invent the wheel. God bless you, please keep them coming........

[@PeterSheelerart]

Yes Joan. It is never too late. Thanks

[@antonyALLIEN]

every painting is like a window to a more relaxed world , i am telepoted there every time i watch your vids , keep up the good work .

[@PeterSheelerart]

Great comment Aleksander! Thank you :)

Very kind words. Thank you very much. Peter :)

[@Griz75]

Absolutely love your work and enjoy watching every minute. So glad these are not at a higher speed.

Thank you very much. So glad you enjoy them :)

[@suzannejohnson3335]

I enjoyed this demonstration. The shadows and transparent colors really make it good

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you Suzanne . So glad you enjoyed this one. Peter :)

[@bobsmith1478]

Nice warm painting. I like pen and wash. I do Watercolor, But can't draw to well. I was watching another Artist when I saw your painting on the side. I saw the way you were drawing and think I can learn from you. Slow and steady. I'm going to subscribe and watch more videos. Thank you for sharing your talent.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much Bob. Just takes practice :)

[@jacksmom6372]

Apparently I am late coming to the party and I have just discovered your work. I'm hooked!! Your sketches and paintings are just beautiful. I did the little farm house (side view with yellow window) tonight and now I want to attempt all your sketches. I can't wait to try this one tomorrow. Thank you for sharing your talent!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much. Makes it all worthwhile for me :) Peter

[@michellerobertson5235]

I'm mesmerized listening to awesome tunes while you create a beautiful snowy day. Thank you for sharing!!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you Michelle. Great to hear :)

[@judigibbs]

Thanks for a wonderful lesson - I am never really sure why you do some things but if I follow your lead my painting always turns out; I hope I will learn the reasons for some of it with time. Great way to spend some time on a winter day. So appreciate you doing these tutorials for us.

[@ianwalker3922]

Top art Pete love your stuff keep them coming please 🎨✨✨✨👌✒️

Beautiful... It is sooo amazing how just putting in the shadows just right... makes any picture "Pop".... You do a wonder job, and it is an honor to watch you paint... "Thank YOU Peter for sharing your fabulous tutorials..." I love your style... The traditional watercoloring... ;)

[@PeterSheelerart]

Great observations Judi. Thank you so much for watching :)

Thank you very much Jon. Greatly appreciated

[@nikolxzz1210]

So beautifu... .I have no words .I relly like your style the light, the colours you use .You know when there is a very nise painting but its like u can't watch it very long becouse you don't like the colours well its the oposite with yours I can watch it for hours .Great job.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thoughtful comments. Thank you very much. Peter :)

[@graziapaint8343]

Grazie Peter ; paesaggio ipnotico! e.... complimenti per l'italiano!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Grazie. E grazie a Google Translate.

[@carolaxis]

Super!! I tried to copy step by step. It´s very late at night now but I'm happy. Thank you! I get fascinated at the way you draw. Watching carefully I learnt about colours, brushes, perspective...and the music is so relaxing...

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much. Makes it all worthwhile for me :) Peter

[@geni2906]

I know exactly where i will mess this painting up!!!! Stunning thank you x

[@nancyrallen]

I am fascinated with your drawing and painting. Love it. Thank you for sharing.

[@PeterSheelerart]

You are most welcome. Thank you for watching :)

[@chammikaiser7740]

Lovely glow you have achieved in this one Peter.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you Chammi. Great to hear :)

[@MrDebkumarbasu]

I am an architect.....i also do photography from time to time. I loved sketching from a very early age which led me to take up architecture...which helped me learn photography. i sketched in black and white and i got a sense of colour and light by doing photography but i could never use colours in my sketches. your videos have helped me bridge the gap. Fantastic work. Huge fan. Cheers from India

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much Debkumar. Hearing that makes this all worthwhile for me :) Peter

[@joanporter916]

Beautiful pen work and color choices. I struggle with both sometimes. Thanks for the demo. That inspire. I will continue to try to improve.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thanks so much. Hope you found it helpful. Peter :-)

[@patricialanger8584]

Gorgeous, gorgeous! The sky is so rich. I enjoyed the wonderful layering of colour. Thanks!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much Patricia. That's nice to hear :)

[@annihilator45]

I love your line work ❤️❤️❤️🤗

[@robrachlin]

I just watched this video - my first - and I'm in absolute awe of your sketching ability! You make it look so easy! I watched it a second time and stopped after every stroke of your pen and tried to duplicate what you did. Mine's not half as good as yours, but it's a hundred times better than what I could have done on my own! thank you for this incredibly valuable video! I'll be watching more, as soon as I've tried painting this one!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thanks so much. Glad you found it helpful. Peter :-)

[@isabelpatchett9356]

Another beautiful line and wash W.C thanks Peter. I agree with Deborah below in that since I have been following you I too find that loosening up while drawing my work is so much better, I would never have believed it but it is.I certainly held my pen far too tight before and it showed up in my work and it took me for ever to do a drawing which never turned out well . And as always your water colours look fantastic , the sky is amazing.Thanks once again Peter. Please keep them coming. Isabel

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thanks so much Isabel. Glad you find it helpful. Peter :-)

[@jcsallen3]

Very clever. Love the final feeling of the picture

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much. So glad to hear you enjoyed it :)

[@mary-chrishines9391]

Your videos have been an inspiration to me - particularly when I went on my first urban sketching event with the art league here in town for a few hours this past Saturday. Your work is incredible! I've learned a lot from watching! I will catch up and see all your videos! :)

[@PeterSheelerart]

Very kind words. Greatly appreciated. Congratulations on your first urban sketching. Peter :)

[@ashokpradhan1980]

What a free hand sketching!!! And painting is too good. Please load a few new videos. Thanks.

Love, love, love your work! I enjoy trying to paint off your tutorials. I don't have any training but your videos do a great job of "teaching" me. Thank you so much!

[@ianwalker3922]

Go on Peater I do like your loose stile of drawing ✒️🎨

[@jeffbeck3770]

I'm amazed at how fearless you are with the pen. I would agonize over every stroke, I fear. Never a line wrong with you, though. Very impressive.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thanks Jim. I just don't point out the mistakes ;)

[@katarinap9744]

Sketching along with this video enabled me to do my very first (and actually somewhat successful) straight-off ink drawing. Brilliant, thank you!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much. Makes it all worthwhile for me :) Peter

[@alexandredessin5081]

Hi, I'm a french guy, so sorry for my english.. You are fantastic, I discovered your channel recently, and I really love your style, I'm really impressed by your ink drawing, I would be really glad to talk a bit with you, by mail for exemple, but I know you don't have so much time. Anywhere, you are a genius, and my inspiration, it's exactly the style I want to develop, I'll work a lot, with your help, thanks !

[@chayra7517]

Hi Peter! I was completely blown away by this painting, as it is simply breathtaking to me... I am very new to watercolours and and am discovering techniques and how to use brushes. i hope to use this to practice :) well done!!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much. That is what I like to hear :)

[@CocogalaxyCat]

Watching you draw makes me think of my late grandfather. He was multi talented. He drew a farm picture on a napkin once. I was young, and questioned who drew it, he said he did. I feel kinda bad because I didn't believe him at first. It was three dimensional lol. It was so very beautiful. This is phenomenal. I mean that! I'd try to buy it but I'm not a good sport on eBay when I lose at bidding lol.

Another great video. Thanks Peter! I've tried using the gum trays as my portable palettes, can't seem to get the paint to stay put once it has dried.... but they are great for plein air painting using limited colours....

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you very much Mark. I did have one colour pop out. Can't remember which. :)

[@jeanneuzarhudson8207]

"Music From the Heart of Space". Not so long ago the host, Don D. Laburto played similar music. Miss it and love this. Simple pallet. Again proving you don't need all the crayons in the box. Greg and Jeanne Uzar

[@gingerbuchanan2795]

I could watch you draw and paint for hours! Fascinating in all aspects. I especially like your use of a limited palette and the plays with warm and cool colors, even transparently...very thoughtful. I do have one question. You apparently use both hands to draw and paint. Your left hand is just as busy as your right hand and there is a pattern to your left hand movement as you draw. You appear to be grasping something, and I'm wondering about it. That's all. Simply nosy and overly observant. Your work inspires me and I am provoked to get off my computer and put pen and/or paint to paper. Thank you for your fine examples. You are a blessing to me.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you Ginger. Thoughtful comments. Sorry, nothing exciting, my left hand is simply holding the drawing board.
