Peter Draws, one of the fine prospects of this earth. His innate desire to “draw”, captivates us all, and he never ceases to share himself and what he represents as a human being. A true spectacle of a man, a man whom we look forward to watching each and every day; as we cannot get enough of his seemingly nonchalant genius. Peter fuckin draws, what did the world do to deserve you.
Peter Draws, it would mean the world to me if were to like and comment on this. I could sincerely rest in peace knowing that the gracious Peter Draws has recognized me, completing my life.
Amen. A true pioneer. Not only does he draw stuff. His conversations are so incredibly interesting, engaging, and simultaneously calming. May he forever remain consistent with content, or so help me god.
i had a thought some time ago. If aliens descended on us and where deciding to wipe us out or not. Peter's vidoes should be shown to them as proof of our worth and kindheartedness.
Peter after spilling ink everywhere: "Should I have filled it from the nib end? Probably..." The note that came in the box: "Unscrew the nib to fill" 😅
To be fair, it didn't actually say that on the side he looked at first. I'm guessing there was another side but I'm 12 mins in. Update: Nope, there wasn't. It didn't say that, it gave directions for how to unscrew it. As an autistic guy, I'd need that to be more obvious tbh. I need things to be literal. Nobody else is wrong for needing that either.
@@smellslikelayne I need very short and on point instructions because if they're too detailed I don't read them ^^ So they need to get this one point across before I pour ink into the first opening I see. And you can be sure that I would have made the same mess Peter did here but without that clean and tidy surface below it.
@@mockingjay478 It does say that, and in fact, Peter first unscrews the correct section. He then screws it back, unscrews the top and starts trying to fill it. It was an easy mistake to make, but the paper's instructions were clear enough that Peter successfully followed them before he stopped following them! Lol!
Peter.. Peter Peter Peter Peter Peter... If what you want to draw are blobs embrace the blob. Why I subscribe to you is because of the ambiguous nature of what you do. In fact it broke me of my own artist block. Not that I draw like you... But I have adopted a few of the techniques I see you do. And you did turn me on to pen and ink. I don't really watch other artists yet. I started a few, but I've been watching you now for a year-and-a-half. And I've gone back to seven years of your videos already. And that's because of the blobs. I've even embraced the hot dogs because of you. So if what you want to draw as a blob don't second-guess that please.
I would very much want a doctor who watches Peter Draws. Thank you for all you do to save lives, you are beautiful. Stay safe and inspired and relaxed by Peter Draws.
Very relatable, somehow, I always think about improving, getting better, in the shower. Sometimes I imagine myself sitting down and studying (very unrealistic but also super encouraging)
Someone that's been using Rite in the Rain for over a decade here. The black paper is sealed on both sides, but not the edges; it isn't meant to Live in regular contract with heavy/shower level rain. If you want totally waterproof paper at the cost of it being a little "slick" for lack of better words, go with the DuraRite No. 635; this is meant to be waterproof. The black one you have I've been carrying for about two years now, and it's been through the wash at least twice with very little noticeable impact beyond the pages looking like that, but with much less bleeding. The brown one is less durable, and pages come out a bit more easily (which wasn't good for my everyday carry). The one you have suited me very well for years, while the white waterproof one was completely waterproof but the pages seemed plastic-y. Takeaway is this - Waterproof - DuraRite Everyday/hard use - Black one Lighter use/water repellant - Tan
Actually, baking/parchment paper is about the most long-lasting water-proof paper you can get, and it costs a lot less, too. You can use if for a million things--makes a great tinder for example. And, mundane as it sounds, you can bake on it.
When you got ink on your hand, through video osmosis, I thought I had ink on my hand too. So when I rubbed my face, I thought, did I just get ink on my cheek? Thank you Peter for the inky osmosis of this video and the delight in hanging out with you this afternoon.
'When I die let my ashes float down the Green River Let my soul roll on up to the Rochester dam I'll be halfway to Heaven with Paradise waitin' Just five miles away from wherever I am' John was my favorite. I know every song. And can play most RIP
Really *really* sucks he passed, glad we got to have him as long as we did though. "And oh what a feeling, when my soul went through the ceiling, and on up into heaven I did ride"
Peter, every time is see you upload a video it makes my day brighter. I’ve been watching your videos for years now and it makes me happy to see you still doing what you love. Those moments are some I have quite often, it’s comforting seeing that I’m not alone in it. And with how successful and motivated you are to continue doing what you do also, motivates me as well as tons of other people ! Crazy to think I’ve been subbed and following you since like the first few thousand Mark was hit! Bless your beautiful mind.
This is the only pen review that made me want to buy from them. Also unrelated, but I've started a diary/notebook lately, and it's helped me remember who I am and what I like. Lately I feel very... mechanical... and I think it's because i spend too much time online taking in too much emotion from thousands and thousands of people which I don't really think humans were designed to do anyway. I don't know.
Thanks for this comment! I’ve been feeling the urge to journal lately...totally know what you mean about absorbing mad emotions and wildness via the media and social platforming🥴. Need to woo-sah and regenerate/reanimate!
I absolutely adore the way you progress in your videos. Every time we get a video from you it's not just one thing it's a multitude of random fun inserts and that's amazing. It's never gettin boring because we never know what's gonna be next :D I hope you never change being your wonderful abstract self, because this makes you absolutely likeable :)
There was something extra special about this video. Usually I watch these videos to unwind before I go to sleep but this one kept me entranced and made me incredibly happy. I think this is one of my favorite drawings I've seen you do too. The more you added to it so it constantly changed subject in my mind - from galactic boat, to solemn sea monster, to apocalyptic city scape - and talked about how you're so inspired by lines really resonated with me? The little cover at the end really tied it all together too. This video was particularly inspiring for me. Made me want to get out of bed and create. To live. Thank you for everything you do.
Dude you're amazing. Just draw (or do!) whatever you want to do. I'm here to watch you, not because of some format or style. Your personality, voice, and unique spin on life is what keeps me watching you and all the antics you get into! In fact, one of my favorite videos of yours to this day is the ticker tape wordle story about the Loiterous Boy. So do you, man. Just do you.
Peter, i would just like to say that since I've started watching you ive had someone to relate to and ive been more active and since have considerably decreased my drug intake (thc, nicotine, caffiene, nothing physically condemning) and since have been happier and more motivated, ive cleaned, done my laundry, ive actually had a will to live and man i cant say enough thank you for helping an artist out and again helping that artists continuum, continue. Thank you, again, really. So much my man, keep it up friend :)
you can avoid that problem by unscrewing the nib end to fill the pen. :D long story short: fountain pens are men to work closed. the ink flow is, in great parts, regulated by how much air is let back in. but with the back of the pen open, the ink just seeps out the channels lent for ink as well as air.
Hello Peter! Hope you’re having a good Wednesday! Thanks for the new video to keep me distracted from everything going on right now! You’re content is like a breath of fresh air and very much appreciated at the moment!
Hello, thank you for this, this is comforting, your content makes me so happy i can't wait for you to upload whether it's a pen review or a podcast I enjoy every moment. You are truly an interesting human being and I admire that, just wanted you to know that now bye sorry I'm terribly awkward 😂
Ahaha I used to watch your videos all the time your voice is so relaxing it just now popped back in my recommendations. Keep doing what you’re doing!! Your channel is growing so much 🥺
Your chord changes have become fluid and natural. I loved watching this video and the art that you made but especially loved your tribute to John Prine. Thank you Peter.
@@jaspermay5813 Nope. I am speaking metaphorically, not literally. I mean accoutrement as in an additional item of dress one might wear to accent an outfit. The day is already beautiful, so to speak, but this video acts in the same capacity as a boutonnière on a new suit.
Peter has a nice voice and calmness to his videos. Nice for relaxation. Even for someone like me who wouldnt care about pens normally. But tears dropped when i read the pages. And the video is structured in a none structured way. It feels so real.
You're my favourite. My mom recently shared her fountain pen collection with me and I've been writing so much trying to document my actions and feelings through the most alone time of my life so far. Thank you for the video and song :) maybe one day she'll let me use her glass pen 🤞
I have some hurdles that prevent me from the kind of stream of consciousness drawing you most often do here, so whenever I watch you do you thing it's like magic. Relaxing, meditative, wholesome magic. I love your drawings!
I absolutely love your current art style and it's influenced my doodling a lot in a good way I think! Just some extra encouragement that you are awesome and inspiring regardless of your style, I just happen to love how it currently is haha :)
On the Up Next recommended videos on the right I saw a video that said How to draw the head, face, portrait and even though I haven't drew anything in over a decade I had a minisecond of anxiety flash up from remembering how upset I'd get having unrealistic expectations and hopes when I'd try to draw something realistic and it would turn into something a blind five year old child may draw instead and thats when my brain said I'd probably be able to draw a face better if I pretended I wasn't drawing a living face but someone who has passed away. It seemed like a plausible idea but I got self conscious thinking that normal people wouldn't do that and I should probably frown upon that but I decided to share that with anyone who happens to read this anyway. I also got concerned for some reason at the idea of Peter taking any kind of psychedelics as his drawings sometimes look like something out of an hp lovecraft novel and I didn't want him to get a bad trip. Towards the end of the video I thought I should comment something. So I thought I'd be clever and be like "Hey Mr. P" So I'd be different. But then I thought of people who make phallic jokes regarding the letter 'D' and I thought that was just too close. So my brain tried to compromise with just say "Hey Mr. Draws" and I had to remind myself that thats not your last name. But then I thought, what if someone whos primary language isn't english, thought that was your last name and said that. Later realizing that was incorrect and getting embarrassed. It would probably be a moment they wouldn't dwell on too long, but every once in awhile they'd remember it and it would ruin their next hour. Life is like that sometimes, we hold onto things and we're hard on ourselves. I guess I should wrap this up as I'm really just rambling. I hope shower Peter isn't too hard on himself and is able to appreciate the blobs and the future sharp angles, the fine points and the bolds. Take care to anyone who reads this and I'm sorry you read this. That is all.
With quarantine being so lonely, I look forward to listening to you so much I'm finding myself saving the videos lol. You should do a podcast -if you feel like it- and talk about whats changing where you are and school, listening to those is so relaxing!
Shower thoughts :o Hang in there Peter! It's healthy to get stuff out onto paper and self reflect. Usually that can help you to feel like you've finished a thought and you don't have to worry about forgetting it, and thus it's okay to stop thinking it. Particularly if you come up with sincere observations and plans. Journaling is good for everything except traumatic, devastating physical injury (in which case it makes things much worse).
you know Peter never ceases to amaze me with how he just starts to draw with ink of course and when hes finished it becomes the greatest piece of art that i personally have seen without sketching. He really is an astonishing man
I'm glad I stumbled here, this was so calm and incredibly accepting. I felt like I didn't need to think with this, and I know it's primarily a pen review, but what's behind the title was very beautiful. I think, keep on with your blobs for however long you like. Embrace that which is flowing, but I think you already know how to do that quite well. I'll leave this here but, I think I'll be back for more. Thank you.
And i find the flow of your drawling mesmerizing. If you want to try to break that process try forcing more structure into your work. Angular. Defined areas, with your free form filling the spaces. Just a thought. Hope it helps.
I feel like I miss the thought a lot "to do good because it's worth it". Or that anything I want to Do is acually worth it, by that means. I wrote that note down in my own Notebook, so thank you Peter. And be loving with yourself :)
You’re amazing at your craft, really someone I aspire to be, not just your talent but idk, seems like you know yourself , comfortable in your own skin Peter, keep on making these great vids bro 👊🏼 you’re the man
I have a tattoo of Hokusais wave! His style does remind me of it a lot. Its so just like. Satisfying? To look at. Idk it looks somehow natural and organic
I just want to say I really enjoy your content and you are such an amazing creator. Also your voice is very soothing to listen to, so that's a plus for my anxiety. :)
Awesomely made video Peter! You drawing one of your masterpieces (imho) and finishing off your video with John Prine's (RIP) "Long Monday". I'll be watching this way more than just once! Thank you for being in our lives and enrichening them! 😊❤👍🏻
Idk, when I watch you, I feel something unique, I feel like you're so human, like if I'm something or someone from another universe, or from a really future nation, just watching this, and meeting the core of humans, like knowing the species in a deeper understanding
I read what you had on the notepad, it really is motivating and well worded. thanks for being the face of something I love to watch. Hope to meet you oneday!
Peter, concerning your comment at 20.07, you may want to delve deeper into other art mediums. It may bring on other joys. I'm experimenting in many different mediums and it is opening my eyes. You clearly have talent. I think you may find "bigger" audiences by expanding your mediums!
yes, from the front!!, but I get why you did it, as some brands have an "air regulator" at the other end, like the vent valve on petrol tanks for outboard motors, but in this case to stop the "siphon" effect so one can carry it in ones pocket without spillage!; but for most brands this access point is for cleaning the barrel (ink chamber) before a colour change, so ALL of the old ink is removed. Think from memmory the TWISBI brand disasembles this way for this purpose too.
Wish I could love your videos Your personality is amazing and the guitar and singing at the end was beautiful What a good pick me up for the bleak world
I'm in love with this pen. As a (almost) geneticist, I would love to have it. For now, as a student, its too expensive for me to buy it. But someday I'll definitely buy it!!
Hey Peter! We use those write in the rain notebooks ALL the time in the army when we’re out in the field. They work really well for me and i am surprised it worked that well 1 month in a shower!!!
I like just about everything about this Pen! The price is out of my range at $150.00+ I just can not justify the expense. It is very cool and I like that they gave you one to show us!
Hey man, it's rough sometimes. I know. I've been watching your videos for years and you are one of my biggest drawing inspirations. Your music though? A+++++ Love you man
Hey Peter. Pretty new here but I enjoy much of your content on pens and the like. After seeing that page in your notepad, just wanted to say: Good job so far! Keep on it! I often find it hard to not procrastinate. We'll all get there eventually :)
those sanding pads you mention are called micro-mesh if anyones interested. I'm sure theres other brands too. Learned about that from another peter on youtube!
What I like in the blobs, Is the organic natural feel to them. But they also feel as through theyre a futuristic sort of thing. Kinda like 60s/70s interior design. Futuristic yet retro. I also love how they can be interpreted differently no matter who. I like this blob because the circles in a line look like little windows for little blob creatures to live in. And I really just love your style is what I’m tryna say
This is the first video by Peter that I've seen, and I gotta say, the blob-drawing took me completely by surprise. It's really interesting, stream-of-consciousness like.
Peter it’s a nice pen,draws well but your pockets need to be very deep..I love watching your doodles no matter how they turn out ,it’s so relaxing watching your pen fly across the paper,as well as fascinating as to what happens too ..Stay safe love 😀
My HEX pen with italic nib is on it's way, looking forward to using it. Thank you Peter, I would never know about this classy-crazy looking pen if you had not shown yours. EDIT: Pen arrived, took 8 weeks and I've been using it for the last two weeks. Looks impressive, writes beautifully and always starts a conversation with someone when I use it. A very happy and proud HEX DNA pen owner.
If you have trouble washing away ink stains on your skin, consider using "Lava" soap or something similar. It is a bar soap with pumice grains in it, so you can exfoliate the stained layers off after a couple lathers and rinses. If the stains are super stubborn, simply rub the bar directly on like gentle sandpaper. I have fair skin and it doesn't seem to bother me, but I'd recommend testing it cautiously before getting more and avoiding it for regular use unless you need to wash stains from your hands frequently. Obviously not a bath bar.

Hello to you from Russia! Hang on, everyone is not easy now!
I would very much want a doctor who watches Peter Draws. Thank you for all you do to save lives, you are beautiful. Stay safe and inspired and relaxed by Peter Draws.
You also deserve a thank you - what a great job the NHS workers are doing in such stressful times. 👍
Mega ups to you my friend!
Thank you for everything you are doing!
I was watching this video and my baby looks at the screen and says, “Da da!!! Da da!!!” You got something you wanna tell me man?

Shower Peter is incredibly relatable
i kept pausing the video to read the pages and damn, peter thinks the same way i do
Very relatable, somehow, I always think about improving, getting better, in the shower. Sometimes I imagine myself sitting down and studying (very unrealistic but also super encouraging)

Thanks for the info!
Also, you're probably right about the sand paper, as I use 1,200-3,000+ grit to polish metal and paint.
@@peter_draws - I grew that company, and use their pen inserts, so on the off chance someone wonders, they'll have immediate and intimate feedback.
Yeah I looked it up afterwards, I think the sanding pads for pen turning usually only go up to like 12,000, but that’s still pretty crazy to me!
Actually, baking/parchment paper is about the most long-lasting water-proof paper you can get, and it costs a lot less, too. You can use if for a million things--makes a great tinder for example. And, mundane as it sounds, you can bake on it.

I listen to John Prine too, very sad he has died. Your singing and playing is great! Thanks for reminding me of one of life's joys.
'When I die let my ashes float down the Green River
Let my soul roll on up to the Rochester dam

On the Up Next recommended videos on the right I saw a video that said How to draw the head, face, portrait and even though I haven't drew anything in over a decade I had a minisecond of anxiety flash up from remembering how upset I'd get having unrealistic expectations and hopes when I'd try to draw something realistic and it would turn into something a blind five year old child may draw instead and thats when my brain said I'd probably be able to draw a face better if I pretended I wasn't drawing a living face but someone who has passed away. It seemed like a plausible idea but I got self conscious thinking that normal people wouldn't do that and I should probably frown upon that but I decided to share that with anyone who happens to read this anyway.
I also got concerned for some reason at the idea of Peter taking any kind of psychedelics as his drawings sometimes look like something out of an hp lovecraft novel and I didn't want him to get a bad trip.
Towards the end of the video I thought I should comment something. So I thought I'd be clever and be like "Hey Mr. P" So I'd be different. But then I thought of people who make phallic jokes regarding the letter 'D' and I thought that was just too close. So my brain tried to compromise with just say "Hey Mr. Draws" and I had to remind myself that thats not your last name. But then I thought, what if someone whos primary language isn't english, thought that was your last name and said that. Later realizing that was incorrect and getting embarrassed. It would probably be a moment they wouldn't dwell on too long, but every once in awhile they'd remember it and it would ruin their next hour. Life is like that sometimes, we hold onto things and we're hard on ourselves.
I guess I should wrap this up as I'm really just rambling. I hope shower Peter isn't too hard on himself and is able to appreciate the blobs and the future sharp angles, the fine points and the bolds.
Take care to anyone who reads this and I'm sorry you read this. That is all.
Peter I am so glad you are doing pen reviews and drawing your awesome drawings. Keep up the good work
With quarantine being so lonely, I look forward to listening to you so much I'm finding myself saving the videos lol. You should do a podcast -if you feel like it- and talk about whats changing where you are and school, listening to those is so relaxing!
Shower thoughts :o Hang in there Peter! It's healthy to get stuff out onto paper and self reflect. Usually that can help you to feel like you've finished a thought and you don't have to worry about forgetting it, and thus it's okay to stop thinking it. Particularly if you come up with sincere observations and plans. Journaling is good for everything except traumatic, devastating physical injury (in which case it makes things much worse).
hey peter, love your videos! hope you're keeping well during these bizarre times!
8 years? I've been watching you that long already? Always fascinated. Thanks Peter.
you know Peter never ceases to amaze me with how he just starts to draw with ink of course and when hes finished it becomes the greatest piece of art that i personally have seen without sketching. He really is an astonishing man
your John Prine memorial was beautiful, thank you for sharing it with us
Alos, another great pen review video
I love that pen design! Super creative use of 3D printing, resin casting, and machining.
I dont know what it is that makes these videos so compelling but you're killing it man
Very cool design for the pen, very eye catching and very unique. To the students that designed this - Great Job!!!
I love how everyone says hi to peter
I'm glad I stumbled here, this was so calm and incredibly accepting. I felt like I didn't need to think with this, and I know it's primarily a pen review, but what's behind the title was very beautiful. I think, keep on with your blobs for however long you like. Embrace that which is flowing, but I think you already know how to do that quite well.
I'll leave this here but, I think I'll be back for more. Thank you.
And i find the flow of your drawling mesmerizing. If you want to try to break that process try forcing more structure into your work. Angular. Defined areas, with your free form filling the spaces. Just a thought. Hope it helps.
Your ability to stay calm during ink disaster is serious mastery!!!
I feel like I miss the thought a lot "to do good because it's worth it". Or that anything I want to Do is acually worth it, by that means. I wrote that note down in my own Notebook, so thank you Peter. And be loving with yourself :)
You’re amazing at your craft, really someone I aspire to be, not just your talent but idk, seems like you know yourself , comfortable in your own skin Peter, keep on making these great vids bro 👊🏼 you’re the man
The drawing reminds me of a melting plane. Very good shapes!
I love to see your videos come up especially during this quarantine
Your style is reminiscent of "The great wave off Kawagawa" by Hokusai. Looks awsome and natural.
Alex Cairoli - You been watching Dave Bull?
I have a tattoo of Hokusais wave! His style does remind me of it a lot. Its so just like. Satisfying? To look at. Idk it looks somehow natural and organic
@@adamwest8711 Yes I watch him regularly as im into Lino cutting at the moment.
I just want to say I really enjoy your content and you are such an amazing creator. Also your voice is very soothing to listen to, so that's a plus for my anxiety. :)
Awesomely made video Peter! You drawing one of your masterpieces (imho) and finishing off your video with John Prine's (RIP) "Long Monday". I'll be watching this way more than just once! Thank you for being in our lives and enrichening them! 😊❤👍🏻
you inspire me to be better, Peter. not just in drawwing, but also as a person. you seem so nice
Fill it from the nib end to avoid ink spilling. Love your art, reviews and persona! Been following for years
I think Peter should start reading us books again. Your voice is incredibly soothing and relaxing, and we all need that in the midst of covid
Idk, when I watch you, I feel something unique, I feel like you're so human, like if I'm something or someone from another universe, or from a really future nation, just watching this, and meeting the core of humans, like knowing the species in a deeper understanding
I guess that's why I like you, Peter. You bring me calmness that I so desperately need.
I read what you had on the notepad, it really is motivating and well worded. thanks for being the face of something I love to watch. Hope to meet you oneday!
Hello Peter! Your videos are always a rainbow in the day! :)
Thanx for making them for us!
Peter, I'm loving these songs! I hope you keep doing them
Peter, concerning your comment at 20.07, you may want to delve deeper into other art mediums. It may bring on other joys. I'm experimenting in many different mediums and it is opening my eyes. You clearly have talent. I think you may find "bigger" audiences by expanding your mediums!
yes, from the front!!, but I get why you did it, as some brands have an "air regulator" at the other end, like the vent valve on petrol tanks for outboard motors, but in this case to stop the "siphon" effect so one can carry it in ones pocket without spillage!; but for most brands this access point is for cleaning the barrel (ink chamber) before a colour change, so ALL of the old ink is removed. Think from memmory the TWISBI brand disasembles this way for this purpose too.
Wow, Peter. You’ve gotten so good at playing the guitar. Looks like those guitar classes are paying off. And I really enjoyed your singing too, dawg.
Wish I could love your videos
Your personality is amazing and the guitar and singing at the end was beautiful
What a good pick me up for the bleak world
I'm in love with this pen. As a (almost) geneticist, I would love to have it. For now, as a student, its too expensive for me to buy it. But someday I'll definitely buy it!!
Priscila Galdino yeah it is very unique. The concept is interesting and looks so sleek.
Hey Peter! We use those write in the rain notebooks ALL the time in the army when we’re out in the field. They work really well for me and i am surprised it worked that well 1 month in a shower!!!
I Just finished The Architecture of Happiness today as well. Amazing book! Changes the way I’ll look at architecture from here on out .
never stop being yourself peter. Love it
Thank you so much for sharing. I have all your books and you have inspired me to start uploading videos of my art. Good to see youre doing well buddy!
I like just about everything about this Pen! The price is out of my range at $150.00+ I just can not justify the expense. It is very cool and I like that they gave you one to show us!
Yea, that price for what you’re getting is nuts. You’re in the realm of gold nibbed pens and nice used high ends at that price point.
Hey man, it's rough sometimes. I know. I've been watching your videos for years and you are one of my biggest drawing inspirations. Your music though? A+++++ Love you man
11:13 It looks like your ring is cursed
Haha, yeah, like its rotting my hand
Rob, you watch drawing videos too? You sure are an interesting human being. Love your videos btw.
It’s a ring of power, obviously.
Hey Peter. Pretty new here but I enjoy much of your content on pens and the like. After seeing that page in your notepad, just wanted to say:
Good job so far! Keep on it! I often find it hard to not procrastinate. We'll all get there eventually :)
those sanding pads you mention are called micro-mesh if anyones interested. I'm sure theres other brands too. Learned about that from another peter on youtube!
Loved that surprise at the end (:
It's amazing how you learned so much with the guitar, I loved the song, thank you
Keep seeing the fuselage of a plane that flew too close to the Sun. Looks dope. Regardless of the subject, you keep pushing out awesome art. 🤙🏻
You may not what Peter is drawing but man is it captivating.
great video as always Peter
I really enjoy your videos man. You deserve your own show👍🏼
hello, peter! I hope you're doing well and doing okay during this quarantine!
What I like in the blobs, Is the organic natural feel to them. But they also feel as through theyre a futuristic sort of thing. Kinda like 60s/70s interior design. Futuristic yet retro. I also love how they can be interpreted differently no matter who. I like this blob because the circles in a line look like little windows for little blob creatures to live in. And I really just love your style is what I’m tryna say
This is like a whole Show Peter is doing :)
The world needs more people like you!
This is the first video by Peter that I've seen, and I gotta say, the blob-drawing took me completely by surprise. It's really interesting, stream-of-consciousness like.
Peter it’s a nice pen,draws well but your pockets need to be very deep..I love watching your doodles no matter how they turn out ,it’s so relaxing watching your pen fly across the paper,as well as fascinating as to what happens too ..Stay safe love 😀
This is one of my favorite drawings from you!
Ugh I was half way through the video and just had to order it. It's so gorgeous and I love that the reservoir is a dna strand omg❤😍
I love your mannerisms, like the one at 4:55 when you double-take the smooth pen
I’m using the noodler heart of darkness ink just now and it’s the best and deepest black I’ve used !!!
My HEX pen with italic nib is on it's way, looking forward to using it. Thank you Peter, I would never know about this classy-crazy looking pen if you had not shown yours.
EDIT: Pen arrived, took 8 weeks and I've been using it for the last two weeks. Looks impressive, writes beautifully and always starts a conversation with someone when I use it. A very happy and proud HEX DNA pen owner.
The musical piece was awesome! Well done, and stay safe!
Peter draws and sings also. what a unique talent.
If you have trouble washing away ink stains on your skin, consider using "Lava" soap or something similar. It is a bar soap with pumice grains in it, so you can exfoliate the stained layers off after a couple lathers and rinses. If the stains are super stubborn, simply rub the bar directly on like gentle sandpaper. I have fair skin and it doesn't seem to bother me, but I'd recommend testing it cautiously before getting more and avoiding it for regular use unless you need to wash stains from your hands frequently. Obviously not a bath bar.
