- Pen and wash demonstration of a Moonlit Winter Farm scene. Using a minimum of colors and simple techniques. My demonstrations are done in smaller sizes, allowing the viewer to get in closer to the painting and better see my techniques. These are the same techniques I use on all of my large paintings.

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.
A note on Davy's Gray: I rarely use this pigment straight and when using it I usually mix it with each colour used.
PAINT 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.
The paints are squeezed onto slips of paper and then stuck to the palette.
This makes replacing or changing colours quick and easy.
BRUSH: An inexpensive, Curry's brand, #2 brush.
A Polar Flo 1/2 inch flat brush is my current favorite. The bristle were originally white but have become stained.
I often use inexpensive brushes because several of my techniques are quite abusive.
Whenever the brush disappears from the screen it is either being wiped off or rinsed.
Tape: is just regular painters tape. The easily removable type available in any hardware store.
PEN: Lamy Safari Fountain Pen with an Extra Fine Nib. With Platinum ink.

Your weekly videos are a breath of fresh air, Peter. Thanks for sharing my music. 😊
Thank you very much Antonio. Always appreciated :)
Antonio Romo love the music!!! It's perfect with Peter's painting lesson!!! Thank you!!!
Every video literally helps me improve on my watercolour skills
Thank you very much. That is what I like to hear :)
With a few lines you tell such a beautiful story, my imagination goes into overdrive and I am overcome with joy.
Great comments Merx. Thank you very much
Thank you for sharing your watercolor painting process. I was watching carefully and encouraged as a result. This winter scene is lovely. I could look at it all day...almost imagine myself there. 😊❤
One of my favorites among many of Mr. Sheeler's.
Thank you very much
I love your tutorials. Sometimes l cannot sleep and for sure l can find you there. Thank you for sharing your beautiful painting along with happy music.
Very thoughtful comments. Thank you :)
I love watching your pen sketches and then how they come to life with your color. thanks for demonstrating. They are inspirational!
Thank you very much Christine. Always nice to hear I've inspired :)
The pleasure of watching you work!
Thank you very much. So glad you enjoy them :)
bravo..i enjoyed painting with your technique on this cold, wet, gray winter morning from deep east texas..
Zjust love the line and wash technique, it is so satisfying to watch. The music is a beautiful accompaniment . All together an experience which soothes my soul time and again.
Thoughtful comments Geoff. Thank you :)
I really admire the simple palette colour choice. I often watch reviews of different watercolour brand paints on youtube, but it is easy to be carried away as a beginner and buy too many, which eventually can cause confusion. You don't need that many colours, just wise choices. Thank you for sharing your expertise, it's lovely to watch you paint.
Great observation. Thanks :)
I’m new to watercolor. I SO enjoy watching you draw. I decided to attempt this particular drawing, trying to use your techniques! Your videos have lit a fire in me and I can’t wait to do more! Thank you for sharing and inspiring us all!
I have to say that you genuinely Inspire me to paint more. I painted at school some 40 years ago and have rediscovered the joy. Hats off R
To you, and l the other artists, both established and aspiring
Such a pleasure to see how you painted the sky though the whole drawing is fabulous. Thanks for sharing with us.
You're very welcome. Thank you :)
Lovely sketch and painting. So happy to see the yellow light in the upstairs window. I didn't want to see an abandoned house. I'm rooting for life always!
What kind of fountain pen ink do you use?
Judith Meyer read the description at the front of materials used
Thank you . So glad you enjoyed this one. Peter :)
Beautiful !! Thanks for sharing 🤗🙏🏻🤩
Mistrzu cudownych klimatów , nigdy się nie zmieniaj . Jesteś artysta , który zachwyca i w minimalistyczny sposób i przekazuje tak wiele . Inni co ścigają się z drukarkami ;) powinni się od Ciebie uczyć, ze nie liczy się doskonałość odtwarzana , a tworzenia sercem i uczuciem którymi tworząc dzielimy się z innymi.
Pozdrawiam serdecznie :)
Świetne komentarze i obserwacje. Dziękuję Ci bardzo :)
Thank you so much for your tutorials. Very helpful. I'm going to work on an old farmhouse I used to live in when I was a kid back in the 70s.
Thanks so much. Glad you find them helpful.
It's always great to work on a scene that has something personal. Peter :-)

Your trees are most perfect 👌 Im totally gonna try to paint with you this lovely sky as soon as I have time. Thanks!
Thanks so much. Glad you found it helpful. Peter :-)
Love that sky, Peter! More like traditional watercolour skies than we often see from you, but less slapdash - very effective.
Thank you . So glad you enjoyed this one. Peter :)
I wouldn't have thought to use the fountain pen upside down for skinnier lines. You make it look flawless. And thank you for identifying your hues & that you place them next to the hues you most often mix them with; all great & practical tips. Love your choice of relaxing music, Yeah !
Thanks so much. Glad you found it helpful. Peter :-)
🇬🇧Lovely, wonderful sky ,thanks Peter

I am lost in that sky!
Thoughtful comments. Thank you :)
Good morning Peter: beautiful!! Thanks
You're very welcome Pablo. Thank you :)
Beautiful light and a lot of atmosphere for such a small painting. Well done, and definitely within my reach. I will try it tomorrow even though it is 78 here in Georgia! :)
Thank you so much. Hope you do try it. About 40 here :)
When I saw your paint and say, it's done, you take your pen and improub your paint. Thank you.
A magnificent meticulous work. I enjoyed every bit of it. There is much of passion in it. The scene is quite serene and sedating. Loved the way you did the last touches with the fountain pen to add some crispiness to certain edges. Please do keep drawing from your imagination. It is apparently magical. Thank you!
Thoughtful comments. Thank you :)
So COOL!!! Love watching you
Thank you very much. So glad you enjoy them :)
Love it! ❤
Thank you very much Sherri! :)
Hi Peter,

All the love - Lineke ;)
Thank you Lineke. Love from chilly Canada :)
Spring will come my friend..... ;) Keep warm!
very beautiful.
Thank you very much :)
Love your work! I’d actually like to find the pen your working with but so far I have failed in my attempt to find it. Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks Peter and say hello from 1000 miles
Thanks so much. And a distant hello to you :-)
I could (and likely have) watched these all day. I like that this one is "off the grid"... [wink]
Thank you very much Peter. Always nice to hear from you :)
It's gonna annoy me but I'm gonna have to ruin the 500 likes and make it 501, this was too amazing to not like... Truly inspirational
LOL. Thanks so much. I'm glad you did :)
I am amazed! I could never draw anything from imagination! I always need a reference photo lol. Just wonderful Peter!! Always enjoy watching you create! :) And the music is lovely too!
Working from imagination is great. No one can tell if you've made a mistake ;)

How are you using waterproof ink in a fountain pen without plugging up the pen?
That was awesome, I am kind leaning towards doing watercolor you away.
Thanks so much. Glad you found it helpful. Peter :-)
sweett home 😍muzik & resim cok guzel💓
Çok teşekkür ederim. Sevindim :)
Thank you
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching :)
Bonjour Peter
Merci pour cette démonstration. Superbe! Est-ce un papier de 300gr que vous utilisez?
Le mouillage du papier est-il fait uniquement à l'eau?
Merci beaucoup. Oui aux deux questions :)
Just a question (not a criticism because I love watching your videos) - why are there strong shadows under the eaves and windowsills when this is a night sky? Or is this early dusk?
Artistic license ;)
Brilliant what type of pen and make of ink domyou use?
Hi Michael. Lamy pen with Platinum Carbon black ink. Please read the video write-up section. Click on "show more" below the video screen. This information plus much more is available there.
May I ask, what is your favourite pen to draw with generally, or does it vary too much according to the situation?
Hi John. I think the felt tip Pigma Micron would be my favorite, but I'm very hard on the soft nibs.
Thank you. I like those myself. I was recently recommended the Pitt artist pen. It seemed a bit too...consistent at first - couldn't vary the line at all, but it's improved over time.
I am so addicted to your videos and I desperately want to buy each of those watercolor paints I hope you would have a link on them
Thank you very much :)
Here's the list.
Winsor Newton- Yellow Ochre, Sepia, Burnt Sienna, Winsor Red, Davy's Gray, Ultramarine, Sap Green.
DaVinci - Phthalo Blue, Cadmium Yellow Lemon, Cadmium Yellow Deep
Me has enseñado para practicar el dibujo y la acuarela
Muchas gracias. Me alegra que lo haya encontrado útil. Peter :-)
Que tipo de plumas de tinta chino usas pues me gustaria hacerme con alguna
Si es posible en español la respuesta si no ya vuscare quien me traduzca gracias
Platinum Carbon black ink. TWSBI fountain pen. Lamy fountain pen
You've listed your paper size at 5" x 7". Wondering if those dimensions are at the edge of the paper or at the border of the painted picture. Thanks!
Hi Alec. 5x7 is the size of the paper.
Thank you!
I know this question is sounds stupid but can you use acrylic to paint that look like a water color?
Yes you can. Keep it wet.
Quite beautiful!!! Came across this channel by accident! A happy accident!
Thank you very much. I'm glad you found me as well :)
HOLA ,,AMIGO SE PUEDE CON ESTA TECNICA HACER ALGO DE GRAN FORMATO?? ME GUSTARIA Q LO HICIERA SI ES Q SE PUEDE
Hola Johnny. Intentaré hacer algo más grande en el futuro.
Bit confused about where the light is coming from

You can post it on my FB page

Please read the video write-up section. Click on "show more" below the video screen. This information plus much more is available there.
Oh, thank you. I am not attentive.
It would awesome if you would chance the music you use, it make lose concentration.
It is difficult to find good royalty free music to use on videos. In the past I have used many different artists. The problem is that many people use these artists as well and then upload their compilations to sites like CD baby. I end up with an unfounded copy-write claim. I file a dispute and always win, but the process is aggravating. I actually get many compliments on the music, but will never be able to please all tastes. All I can suggest is you lower the volume.
i follow you but you are yellow ocre sepia and ultramarine man......
Thanks Eugenio. LOL, I do use other colors, but don't want to add them here and cause people to buy even more paints.
have a good day happy bye
Sorry, want to say improve.
Thank you very much! I knew what you meant :)
Wonderful
Thank you very much :)
