How to draw and paint a Flower, Wildflowers in Watercolor Line and Wash. Peter Sheeler

  • A simple little chicory wildflower demonstration using just 4 colors.
    ** Now selling my paintings on Ebay **
    Link: www.ebay.ca/sch...
    PEN: The Uni-ball deluxe micron roller ball pen .5mm nib. These pens are extremely waterproof on my papers and can be painted over immediately. The roller ball is almost indestructible and claims to be archival.
    PAPER: Size- 5"x7"
    Arches 140lb Cold 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 Polar Flo 1/2 inch flat brush is my current favorite. The bristle were originally white but have become stained.
    An inexpensive, Curry's brand, 3/8 and #6 brush.

    I am a true beginner with watercolors and painted this. These bright blue wildflowers grow prolifically all along my country road and I just love them. I was thrilled that even a rank amateur like me could produce my first watercolor painting of these flowers that got many compliments. Thanks Peter!

    Charming Chickory .One of nature’s treasures.The colour is alluring.Connecting the image to the frame is an interesting technique.The often unfinished jagged broken lines invite the eye to finish it.Nice.

Can’t wait to rewatch one of your other videos that I liked and try it for myself! All the best to you! 😊

      @@PeterSheelerart I think the video picture is great. Sorry, I didn't explain. I saw your palette so when I mixed ultramarine with a tiny thalo it became like that lighter shade of blue in your first layer...I like that colour! I can definitely see the ultramarine in the next layers you added. Thank you so much.

    Hi Peter, this is so simple and beautiful. I'm getting into pen and wash more. I see you always draw without directly on your watercolor paper. Do you plan out your painting before hand? You don't usually show a reference photo. I need to but would like to learn not to. Debbie

    I don't understand it, Peter. When I try to paint like you've done the green in this pic, I get a hard outline when the paint dries. When yours dries, the edges of your brushstrokes are the same even tone. Am I using too much water? Is it the paper?

    • @PeterSheelerart

      Yes, too much water. This is something you will begin to understand over time. Stick with it :)
