Abstract Oil Painting: Really Anyone Can Do It
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ส.ค. 2019
- You don't have to be an expert or really have any experience at all to have a good time creating things with oil paints. They can be intimidating, but they don't have to be.
Also at one point in this video I think I mentioned linseed oil, but I think I meant gamsol, which I use a lot of to thin the paints. I don't really know what I'm doing but it seems to be working ok.
This painting was at least somewhat inspired by this Kurt Seligmann painting I used to look at in the Art Institute of Chicago: www.artic.edu/artworks/62315/...

"Blending is the colour I'm thinking of!"
And the the sigh after that ;)
blending; where one colour goes into another colour and they become friends
Rich Wedge I love this line. 😄🎨
Rich Wedge Colors with benefits?
Lol, i was like a kid in class who knew the answer when he said that, lol. raising my hand going, ooh ooh oh!!! lol.
I'm stealing it....
sounds like something bob ross would say
The comment section on this channel is always so nice and wholesome. It makes me feel good.
I'm a simple man, I see a new video on Peter Draws and I cry out in an unreasonable amount of joy and enthusiasm, startling my coworkers in the process. I bull-rush through the cubicle isle, knocking women and children out of the way as I scream in excitement "PETER DRAWS! PETER DRAWS!" A tear comes to my eye. A tear of joy. I wipe it away as I remember I need to stay macho. Everyone begins to stare. I don’t care. I’m already out the door and starting my car. I speed home with the fury of a starving lion taking down a gazelle. But the lion is malnourished. So am I. I haven’t had a new video from Peter in a few days. I finally arrive home, my palette whet. Work clothes off. Comfy clothes on. I sit back, relax, and begin the journey. Oh sweet heaven. I am home. I watch the episode and it really lubes my gears something swell. 38 sweet seconds later I fall asleep from the crash after the adrenaline rush. I awake the next morning to a phone call. It’s from the boss. I’ve been fired for leaving work on a Saturday at 10:30 in the morning with no notice of absence. I don’t care, PETER DRAWS! Why were their children in the cubicle isle?
Actually, Peter Paints.

I know the feeling . Your heart quickens , and your breath becomes labored . Your head swims momentarily but you shake it off because you have to . Your eyes blur from the hunger , the need . And then finally you're there . With the hope and joy of every child on Christmas morning you're face to face with the pizza delivery guy .
The Bluefurd 😄😍👋👍
I like how some people can sound like English majors :)
"Anyone can do it"
*Proceeds to make a masterpiece of abstraction*
Peter, you're too modest and I love it.
"When the colors meets and come together and become friends"
The cutest way I have ever heard blending explained😂❤
They become very good friends because they create a new color :)
group hug 👨🏾🚀
your voice is so therapeutic. i'm dealing with some stressful stuff right now so i'm so grateful for your videos.
Thank you.
I hope your life is a little less stressful, these days - or at least, you’ve caught a break, between then, and now.
If not, or you just had a rough day today … well, hey, welcome back 👋 wanna relax with me and re-watch something chill and nice? 😊 take care of yourself pal
Anyone can do art really it doesnt have to look good. If you like it and someone else says its horrible or something, that doesnt mean its horrible, if you like it then you like it its your art. Dont switch to not likeing it because someone says they dont like it. Its your art and you should be the one to judge it. And dont change your art because someone else doesnt like it, its yours not theirs.Change it the way you would like to change it, if you dont want to change it and think your done, then its done, no one else can change that. Thank you peter for sharing this video as always i love ur vids and farewell.
And even if YOU dont like your own art, someone else will probably like it 😉
Maybe all art piecs are valuable, but some show ideas in a much more effcicient and
conscientious manner.
Peter Paints.... is unequivocally, absolutly, ....... positivly, scrumptiously, cretaceously......the best show on the youtube channel👏
Especially cretaceously 😄👍
I agree with all of this 😁
True true. Weeeell, Maybe the second best show;) lol
...when peter paints he paints the darkness in his soul O_O
Peter, this painting is so beautiful. Actually it's almost scary, and kind of imposing, like looking at the insides of a magnificent creature like a whale but maybe you're scared and in awe in equal measure because WOW you're inside a whale but oh NO you're inside a whale. Also I thought I saw a couple of people trying to struggle out of the goop there, in the middle, there! Oh you missed them. Love you Peter
Edit: I find it relaxing and reassuring to think that while I was living my strained, unhappy day on Earth today, Peter was across the other side of it, editing his painting video and most likely doing more art.
I really love how those pinkish colors blend into this painting
Being able to go back to areas and keep screwing around with it is what I find so attractive in charcoal drawing.
Played around a bit with oilpaint years ago, maybe I'll take it up again. But for now I am focussing on value, light and dark, fun stuff.
Thanks for your enjoyable video's, bless.
Priming both sides because one side might "get lonely"... I love that!
Great tutorial, dude. Enjoyed it. I'm not an abstract kind of guy, I'm more hyper realism. But I totally enjoyed this video.
"blending is the color I'm thinking of..."
yes that was the color I was hoping you'd say.
One day some historian is going to stumble upon this and come up with some abstract idea of what it means and why you did it when really you made it cause you wanted to.
Emily Yyyy First, no art historian will stick an abstarct piece to a specific meaning. Secondly, his “will” to create this painting is influenced by his inner emotions and external effects. The reasons he wanted to paint it is totally unknown to us and maybe even to him.
@@danie7kovacs Good point. I feel like it's the same with literature, especially teachers overanalyzing surface level descriptions.
Writer: "She looked between the red curtains, out the windows and beyond the horizon..."
Teacher: The curtains are red because the character is in love.
Writer: The curtains are red because I said they were.
Edit: We share the same first name.
“Like one color goes in with another color and they become friends” is such Bob Ross thing to say
I like the adventurous peter who draws but also attempts other artforms.
i want this on my wall i swear i’m in love with the deep dark mysterious sinful yet rebellious vibe it sends towards me
i love how u just talk relaxed withouth pressure that everyhting needs to be said as smooth as possible, Its very raw and pure and like it.
*🅱️ e t e r Draws Presents*
"Alright, hello everybody. 🅱️ e t e r here."
😂😂😂 😔👌 😥👊
Peter actually kinda sounds like Joe from Family Guy
Welcome everybody to really original and actual memes
Why is this so high up on the comment section?
Oh no. Now I hear Jo Swanson. Why did I catch up. Whyyyyyyyyyyy...😢
It's funny how I'm ok just watching the one video peter posts per week but every once in a while i need huge doses of Peter and end up binging his videos for 3 days. That's where i am now and this video just happened to be the one i was watching while coming to this realization. Love yall 💗
the way his brain works is so interesting and his art never disappoints.
Bob Ross explains brush and maneuvering the brush to easily blend colors, also coating canvas with liquid white before going into painting always makes it so much easier to blend colors so there’s no defined line.I really enjoy your videos and look forward to your comfortable growth using utensils and oil paints you make
Funny you mention Bob Ross. I stumbled on this video and as I watched I thought, "this guy is the Bob Ross of abstract art!"
i’ve been watching peter for a really long time and i don’t think i’ll ever stop watching
Mariah Langehennig - Are you why he keeps moving address?
ooh love how it turned out!
This is such a wholesome good feeling video
I love the time of the day that I've finished my work and can watch Peter Draws
One could definitely meditate while listening to this
Excellent, do what makes you happy, love all your stuff!
Absolutely love your calm voice. I am not young chronologically and when I was young was told I made too much mess to paint so became an actor. I can’t draw properly but love small detailed drawing - but painting clouds is heaven! I would like to progress, hard to give myself the time.
Homie
Im here to insist
You find a little time
To let yourself do some painting
Once in a while
Any paint 🎨
Please
5:20 honestly all those lines you keep painting and drawing got me feeling some type of way
you remind me of a mix of bob ross and my old math teacher.
ladicius PRETZELZ cool teacher
Smooth, stylistic, soothing....connected. Thx.
Loved this so much 💓 Thank you as always. I hope everyone here is doing well and not being too harsh on themselves.⭐🌠🌞
I love the colors of it. It's very brooding with moments of brightness. Like someone who is in a dark place in their life but has the rare fleeting moments of hope. I would love to have this in my home
You should try painting with gouache! Great stuff as always!
keep at it man, painting is an adventure
I love your Work.
Such. A. Boss. Forever one of my inspirations for creating, also that painting is epic.
I really like this painting! I see 3 people. One on the left with a hood, a blond girl in the middle and Chewbacca on the right. I also see 2 hands. One big hand palm up, bottom right, reaching out to the viewer. I think it belongs to the guy in the hoodie. Then a smaller hand that belongs to the blond on the arm of the hoodie guy and she's like... "Don't." Chewbacca is all leaned back wondering who kissed his beard. Probably the blond girl. Looks like she is going in for a kiss with the guy in the hoodie, but ran out of lipstick. He is all like, "How dare you try to kiss me after telling me Don't!" Great painting!
Looks great
peter! this was so beautiful. i enjoyed it so much.
I love it! It feels like a microscopic image of a piece of coral or something. Very cool
I love how it started and ended its really unique love the way u make these halv circles wingslike/almost like fathers made by brush strokes .the layering is so unique 😍💖
I loved this painting. It was authentic. It was you, Peter, and that makes it a cool piece of art in my book.
Omg! Peter! You just aren't looking at your painting with the right eyes! It is amazing! A masterpiece! You should always make these, I can see them becoming something huge someday :D Great Job!
Ooh wow, that looked wonderful. I'm going to try abstract oils for the first time tomorrow.
Amazing painting 👍👌
Awesome talent
happy to see you expanding into different mediums and growing artistically:)
This is the only channel I've ever decided to get notifications on and I've never been happier I made that decision. :)
oh OH! i liiiike this! well done!
Definitely continue with oil paintings!! You’ll get better with each one and I’d love to see your art style with colour added!! :D
You are awesome. Thanks so much.
So happy I stopped to watch this video. I was feeling so bad and anxious and your video made me feel so much better. I really want to start painting again. But I know how you feel with paint you just keep going and wish you had stopped at one point. That’s why I love my drawing tablet because I can undo stuff and it’s great. But noting truly beats the real thing.
Good job! I really like the colors!
Thanks Peter. I just found you and have just got I to oils after years of watercolours and acrylics. I was wondering about using MDF and you just answered all my questions! Thanks heaps. I have liked and subscribed. Love your calm talk too.
Wow awesome
Another amazing video here i come
The way you say drawing reminds of the way Stewie says cool whip. I love it. ❤
I love the telecaster in the background
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I came here from your outline markers video. I really like you. Definitely going to subscribe. Thank you.
I call your style...as Painting Without Borders. No limits. No rules. I'm a newbie entering the world of art. Abstract art is what I love. Now I am orchestrating my own symphony of styles that I get to create. I'm " Painting Without Borders "
Question? how did you mix such vibrant hot pink? What colors needed to mix to get that color? I love it!!!
Awesome work!!!💞🌸🌌
Lighting technician extraordinaire!😁💕
I love this
Love the strokes & feel of it!! :O)
Amazing
It reminds me of angels. There’s wings and a face. Some golden glow.
I like it a lot. I’m a bit of a doodler, and I see you doing it. Just adding a detail here, a neat shape here, and impression of depth on this part, I want a different texture or pattern here, ooh nice contrast. I like it.
My school art teacher: Less is more.
Me: It's fun so more is more.
Your cameraman never came back did he? He saw you do the whole hold-book-with-foot-whilst-recording thing and felt obsolete so now you’re having to go it alone. Find him Peter. Find him and promise you’ll never toe a book again.
Thank you Peter :) I like how it turned out, I LOVE that you painted both sides! :D 2 art pieces for the price of one!
Sweet!
painting on wood is a tradition that goes back far past when we started using canvas to paint on in the renaissance, canvas was adopted because it won't split like wood and it being a much lighter and transportable material. early canvas were all exclusively made from linen and hemp, cotton canvases are a more modern adaption.
This looks like a sorceress cooking up a storm
I recently found you and am really enjoying your channel
I quite like and enjoy your oil painting style actually
It's good to see you trying different things. I love your painting. There's!an alien face in it!👽
Why is your voice so soothing???
Why is a swastika your profile picture lmao 😂
@@user-lf5ok5yk5n it's a gear stick 😂
@@Big-BoiSteve omg I need one
@@Big-BoiSteve aww man... Nevermind
He washes his mouth with paint thinner every morning:)
I really like it
i found your channel today like just a few minutes ago but anyway i’ve been having a rough time and these are nice and relaxing and distracting
I like the end product.
I also prefer mdf. In my case I know why: because it’s more stiff than canvas. Like drawing on the table.
Love your painting. 😍
I feel you peter we all need to change it up every once and awhile :)
Oil paintings are usually given a final coat of a varnish to bring out the rich colors and let the layers shine, especially if they are thin and translucent.
Not that you have to follow that convention.
Just a suggestion.
If you’re interested in trying that out.
You’re the Bob Ross of our generation bro.
It’s fun squishing and smooshing the colors around, making them be friends 🙂
It's so good, its like a still life of a gold key and pink and red fabric that I can't exactly make out but it's there, idk is trippy and good tho.
I saw your video on Instagram before this and then see you filming the instagram video in the video... this is crazy
i actually love the how the painting ended up
You're like a pro painter now
😂 you’re dialogue reminds me of mine 😆 I’m tempted to start making videos. Because without even trying you were quite hilarious ❤
i went back in time and saw you made a small book, any chance that you would be releasing another updated one? currently i have greg simkins, shaun tan, herakut but really want to add you to the collection, cheers from aus :)
I don't know what are you done but I won't to draw too, thank you, Peter!
You are amazing
Wait! I wasn't ready for the video to be over. :(
Dang i just found put youre from greensboro! Im from kernersville! Where do i find a good pen around here? I have been watching you videos for months and i think im ready to make the switch to a good fountain pen.
I remember having to photograph my paintings in art school and you have to balance the light on all sides to keep it even. Luckily I was also a photography major so I had some familiarity with the light meters. My friend had high gloss in her paintings and had a heck of a time photographing them.
You're like the Jeff Goldblum of painting! Haha
Love it!
