    Thanks for your great instrveuction and tips. I am 73 and never have had an art class in my life. RUclips and artist like you make it fun and non threatening. Appreciate your efforts and skills shared. Blessing from a PTSD Viet Vet during my lockdown in the woods. Stay safe and thanks for the new life in colors~~~ Arches is a blessing, tried some Art Loft paper and it was brutal for blending and shading. Good paper makes my efforts more achievable. My best, be well

    I've seen Ruby-throated hummingbirds around here; but, they tend not to stay still long enough for me to take a picture. I think this is a really nice painting and you have captured the sparkle without using any iridescent paint.

  • @peaches5712

    I've been watching you, and learning, for some time now and I think this has to be one of my favorites! You also paint on a smaller scale, which I love! However, when I was in college my professor used to get after me all the time for doing so! lol But I still do, most of the time! lol

    Such a sweet, little bird! All the while watching you paint those small details, I wondered how you'd manage to paint such a tiny eye. Short of using a sewing needle, so happy to see you use your liner pen instead. I'm very much enjoying watching and learning from your bird watercolors!

    Peter another great little video, thanks for adding this one to your collection as I learn so much from watching them. I am intrigued by your little palette in this and other videos of yours. Do you explain that palette in more detail anywhere in one of your videos? It looks like a great asset to have when painting outdoors.

    • @PeterSheelerart
      @PeterSheelerart  8 лет назад +1

      Thanks Tony. 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. Peter
