Paint a simple Old Lighthouse. Line and wash watercolor. Easy to follow with Peter Sheeler

Another lighthouse, but I've added the leaves and branches to help focus on the main focal point. The red roof.
** Now selling my paintings on Ebay **
Link: www.ebay.ca/sch...
MATERIALS
PEN: A Uni-ball Micro rollerball pen.
PAPER: Size- 5"x7"
Arches 140lb Hot Press Paper for this Video.
My papers of choice include Arches 140lb Hot press and Cold press paper and Strathmore 500 series Sketchbooks. All are 100% cotton rag.
For beginners, I recommend starting with a high quality paper and experimenting with different types. As your style develops, you'll get a feel for which type is best. Waiting to switch to a better quality paper later will be much like learning to paint all over again.
MY PALETTE: All tube paints!
Winsor Newton- Yellow Ochre, Sepia, Burnt Sienna, Winsor Red, Davy's Gray, Ultramarine, Sap Green.
DaVinci - Phthalo Blue, Quinachridone Fuchsia, Cadmium Yellow Lemon, Cadmium Yellow Deep. *I plan to replace the Fuchsia with Winsor Newton Quinacridone Magenta when mine runs out.*
MIXING PALETTE:
The palette is the mixing tray from a "Koi" Watercolour travel set. The colours are set up so the ones I mix together most often are close together.
BRUSH:
A Currys #3 brush.
A Polar Flo 1/2 inch flat brush is my current favorite. The bristle were originally white but have become stained.
Featuring new music by Antonio Romo.
From the albums Around the corner and Interior
"Bittersweet memories", "Liquid crystal", "Blue cave", "Time and space", "The tides of time".

Thank you, this was so fun and was really happy with the results. Am a real newbie and have been painting many flowers. This light house was just the ticket to the next thing. Your kind of wonky style really speaks to this creative human being. So appreciative.

[@antonioromopiano]

Absolutely beautiful, Peter! Always an honor to hear my music in your videos. 😊🎹

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thanks again Tony!

[@sinfalacias2009]

​@@PeterSheelerart Peter, you are an excellent artist, it is a pleasure to see your videos, they are very inspiring. In addition, the music is magnificent, a good complement. Thanks Peter and Tony.

[@triciashelton8482]

Antonio Romo Beautiful music!

[@katepanthera7265]

This piece reminds me quite a bit of Mke Rowland's "The Fairy Ring" - one of my favorite pieces of 'new age' music. This is very pretty as well!

[@antonioromopiano]

@@katepanthera7265 Thank you very much! 😊🎹

Thanks so much Tim. We'll get through it. You stay safe as well.

[@dienekevanheuckelum7358]

After struggling with finding the right paint that suits me (tried oil paints, arcylics and lately gouache) I leaned towards watercolors and was looking for a tutorial to learn how to use them. I used your tutorial on this simple old lighthouse and was absolutely blown away with the result I was able to create using your guidance. Mentioning the colors to use and to mix was a great help and I find your music very calming. I think I have finally found the medium that suits me. Thank you a lot Peter for this wonderful tutorial and for teaching me the wonders of watercolor!

[@nancydb1390]

Thank you. I tried following you along. Although mine doesn't compare with yours, I'm quite pleased with it and learned a lot from you.

[@danitagoins4574]

Wow! That’s awesome that you have your grandfather’s mechanical pencil! God bless you. I really enjoy your work. It’s a blessing to be able to watch all of your videos.

[@donbartram7081]

Hi Peter. I've just started trying my hand at watercolour. I'm finding your work a great inspiration. Thank you for sharing. Keep well everyone.

Thank you so much Donald. It's never more fun than when you first start. 😀

Thank you very much Karaket. Great comments

[@maryvaeni1007]

I am doing this one for my daughter on a watercolor for her October birthday. It is a perfect scene for her and the watercolor and inks remind her of her favorite children's stories - so I know she'll love it. Thank you.

[@maryvaeni1007]

oops - meant to say 'on a watercolor card.'

[@julienormesson8170]

Thanks Peter. The graphics of the branches, in the end, and the way to achieve it, is a real masterpiece.

[@kellywhalen6232]

I loved watching the making of this!

[@marybirder5663]

How wonderful you still have your Grandfather's old, mechanical pencil. The feel, the weight and the history can't help but come pouring out. The work on your shadows really highlight this one, Peter. One of your more charming ink and wash pieces!

[@PeterSheelerart]

Great comments Mary. So glad you enjoyed this one.

[@jeanmayo4076]

What a nice video, thank you so much. I’ve decided to learn to watercolor during the shelter in place but haven’t had the courage to try it yet. I think your step-by-step video will be just the thing to get me started. I love how you put all the colors to one side so that they can be seen and how you really take the time to do it step-by-step. Thank you so much! Blessings, and be safe!💕

Thank you Jean. Please do start painting. It's a wonderful pastime

Thank you so much Mona. You have told me and I agree.

[@bonsaiStew]

Wonderful Peter. Hi from down under. I love how you have added the leaves as wet on wet and given the time to mix them a bit blurry then follow up with the branches with distinct clarity. I really love your style and i appreciate how your have the colours set out and list the brushes used. I have copied some of your works and return to them. Looks easy then..... Stay safe and bless you 👍

Many thanks Stew. Great comments as always. Stay well my friend.

[@PeterSheelerart]

Thank you so much Jardel😀. Nice work on your channel. I hope you don't mind that I mention this, but I discovered very early that people prefer a non sped-up video. Or if you feel your video is too long, perhaps just speed up certain repetitive parts. Peter
