The Art of Dot Making (Stippling)

Stippling is defined as something. In this video you'll find me rambling on about something else. Lots of little dots clumped together in different densities. From the beginning I didn't know what the density destiny was.

The history of dots... 🤣👍

[@need_more_kittens]

Did Peter actually make it all up? I'm confused

[@vivaldirules]

I hereby vote for the 60 hour stippling video, Peter. I promise that I would take breaks and not binge watch it.

[@Triciatly]

J Warren I'd binge watch it, especially if he reads one of those stories while showing it.

[@gamesloveD-jo8zv]

I’d watch it, i dont need a voiceover or anything, just some soft music and him dotting on paper

[@clairewestfall5293]

I vote for 60 hours of voiceover as well.

[@steinnbjorn7627]

For some reason, any work made with stippling is extremely satisfying for eyes to look at

[@brokenacoustic]

Dots are just really short lines.

[@harizwain4969]

Or is lines are just a long dots

[@TheDamageinc81]

@@harizwain4969 Garth ... was that a haiku?

[@brokenacoustic]

@@harizwain4969 Lines: Dots with desire to go somewhere.

[@vivaldirules]

Or are dots just lines with no place to go? Or too lazy to bother trying.

[@brokenacoustic]

@@vivaldirules Oh no...I'm a dot!!

[@choosejesus1910]

A line is a DOT That went for a walk

[@b21725]

I'm a simple man. I see a Peter Draws video, and I press the thumbs up button.

[@lizzymoore54]

Pointillism is the term I learned. I've only done a few portraits using this technique. It can be tedious but I enjoy tedium at times. I just love the freedom of your work, Peter.

[@SoumilSahu]

At the end of the video, the piece looks like it was always meant to be that way even though you just made it up as you went. This is what amazes me about your drawings, every single time.

[@maxschaefer7429]

Your drawings give me an old-timey feel and I really like it

[@jayclapper3173]

I did a portrait of my yellow lab, Sandy, using just dots. It turned out great.

[@BudFieldsPPTS]

This is a wild introduction to your work, Peter. Exquisite. Thank you for this. It moved me.

[@forethoughtx2846]

Spot on

[@Stu_DLNGR]

Lmao. You're a riot, bro. (Paraphrasing) "In the 1800s, when dots were invented. Until that point(or dot!?), they were only using lines". Keep Draw'ring. You're inspiring and funny. It is always a pleasure to hear your commentary over your astounding works. Peace

[@ZHCYT]

Period art 😮😮

[@lyndengeaney108]

I don't even skip the ad's, that's how much I like your content. Keep up the dots and line's

[@AppelmoesArtandPhotography]

I like the way that you exactly put into words what I’m thinking. I am a thinker and not a talker. My mind is 24/7 at work, but if you ask me, what are you thinking? Well, I can’t give you an answer, but watch the video’s from Peter Draws and you know it. Most of the time my thoughts doesn’t make any sense. Have a nice day, greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

[@paveltc]

That was a very satisfying video to watch. All of those dots coming out of the pen. A lovely bit of history too, I did not know the history of dots prior to watching this. Many years ago I took a class in high school geometry where we briefly covered dots but the teacher did not go into the intricate history of the origins of dots. Thanks Peter. You teach me something new almost every day.

[@amymclean334]

I love the commentary that goes along with the video. It always intrigues me and makes the video much more interesting. Thank you Peter

[@ViolentPayload]

great. need to try this again

[@mortkebab2849]

I didn't appreciate this channel at first but this video is quite useful.

[@o1ecypher]

YOU ARE THE BOB ROSS OF OUR TIME I LOVE YOUR WORK BROTHER HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR THIS CHANNEL DOES NOT GET ENOUGH RECOGNITION

[@oscar_jjuarez5266]

My best art pieces are done with stippling ! Something about this art form feels really rewarding to me ... very time consuming but well worth the hastle 🤙

[@BlacRoc10]

a god in stippling...

[@itachi8006]

Now i wanna draw using this technique ✍🏽

[@NonameJim567]

I’d watch the 60 hours video in real time, just saying.. love you Doc ❤️ awesome work

[@datageek824]

Wow....totally amazing job Peter...60 hours whew that's incredible!!! Keep up the great work..

[@Chabam]

Dots are amazing! If you look at the most realistic rendering techniques in computer graphics (path tracing, photon mapping, etc ...) they're in fact made with dots of light. In a way, dots is how the world is displayed to us!

[@mikechumbike6422]

thats beautiful

[@alivingtree]

I love you daddy stipple

[@wesleyalan9179]

@@wormhat3332 ...hahaha

[@MTSVW]

This is even more intense than Yayoi Kusama’s work with dots because there is an extra layer of shapes. I’d like to experience this blown up the size of a billboard or a football field so my eyes could get lost in the dots up close, then zoom out with a drone.

[@Nanamo0n]

I love stippling! Made some portraits of family and some stars. Have to play with the old pen and ink again since watching this video......

[@murrayc3321]

Well done Sir! Have done a few stippling pieces myself and know the time involved and the breaks needed. Beautiful work!

[@cshula1]

It’s beautiful!

[@Reconbox1001]

One of the best "how to" you have made. Inspires me to go make a drawing myself.

[@wingus857]

Awesome work Peter

[@KatoVanackere]

A dazzling piece, peter! I could look at it for hours and hours

[@bleachedout805]

I love stippling! This is cool. I'm going to try this for myself. I love the language of art and the history lesson is beautiful.

[@djstankdaddy4144]

that is absolutely f*cking incredible!

[@spiralcraft8957]

The end of the age of the bone pusher downer and the start of the age of the thin wooden pusher downer. ahh yes those where good times.

[@mariaturner371]

Wow that's a huge piece. Must have taken him days to finish that piece. Great artwork Peter!

OMGG!!!! Peter!...You totally blow my mind! This is is astoundingly beautiful, not to mention all of those tiny dots and all of that time spent making them. :) Truly Inspired! Have a wonderful Creative night tonight. I too am off to sleep, perchance to dream... Sleep well my Brother Night Owl! Namaste!

Peter..you seem to have on your left hand fingers what appears to be a chaotic bar code. It would be interesting to scan you and discover what product you really are today : )

This one puts me to sleep real good.

[@mydogrosemary2556]

Great advice as usual. Slow and steady wins the race! 🐢

[@deborahwhatford9831]

I was thinking about doing dot art today, then saw this video. Spooky. 😊

[@yeddiiie]

Awesome work Peter! This is a very interesting style of art, and your commentary always makes everything better. I'd love to see you make a video of drawing with only erasers. Maybe by taking graphite powder and smearing it all over a page, then using different types of erasers to create something from the darkness. Love your videos. Keep it up!

[@lyndasnart7823]

You are wonderfully instinctive as a teacher talented is an understatemenr

[@emuwuno]

You should try to do a mandala with only dots

[@karln3702]

Ich habe keine Ahnung, aber Peter wird besser und besser. Gut gemacht Peter!

Your art is on a whole different level. love it! So inspiring and entertaining to me :)

[@matesandorzalan960]

Peter, you should look at the works of Albin Brunovsky. He was a Slovak artist, and he had very detailed etchings. He used dots many times, and I think you would like his style!

Hey Peter, ever thought about tattooing? I would definitely let you doodle art on my body. Whenever you just draw with no plan in mind, it always comes out so good. It would be like a surprise tattoo😂

[@benitoperez5938]

thats pretty bad ass bro

[@tsc8765]

A dot is a line when its dragged through time

[@flikkie72]

Okay, I used some black magic to convert the time he spent on this big of a piece to a surface area per hour and it's about 2.5 square inches (or 16 cm2)! If you're aiming for the speed of a seasoned stippler, you don't have to go faster than that!

[@mikenel9793]

Yes it's Christmas time

[@ryanlarocque2571]

Can we get a final dot count own this image?

[@oryangoat5915]

Jesus that is fucking amazing!

My grandson use to like to stipple off the front porch instead of using the indoor plumbing! Same thing? 😜. Won’t even talk about dithering!!! Great art. Thanks

[@chandrika8788]

Could you pleaassse tell me the the pen used here? I want to improve my stippling skills....:) Btw mindblowing artwork!
