- Pen and wash demonstration using masking tape to protect highlights. I've used 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.
Some of 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, Polar Flo 1/2 inch Flat
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.
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 indestructable and claims to be archival.
I am in my sixties, this painting made think of my loving mother and how hard she worked taking care of my father and her five sons. She was a very good person, a very good mother and my best friend. Thank you for the memory
Great story. Thank you for sharing and for watching :)
Masking tape to make more or less random shapes, what a good idea !!! Thank you very much for sharing ! I love your work
Love, love, love your drawings and the way you paint them. I have just discovered I can draw through doing Zentangles. You have really inspired to try more and go further. Your art makes me think of days when I grew up a farm and the world around me at that time. Thank you so much for sharing your art and inspiring me.
Love the wash on the clothesline!!!❤
Love this! I am new to watercolor. I have lived a long life, time to try something fresh and fun.
That's the spirit Barb. I try to learn something new every year! Keeps us young... ish.
my granny used a blue soap to do the laundry and I remember being sitting under the clothesline getting drops of fragrant water on my head! Thanks, very clever!
Beautiful simple line work and color washes. Master.
I love your work! The way you work and how you’ve laid out your labelled pallet, that we can watch as you mix as you paint, wonderful! I’m new to pen and wash and watercolours. You’re an awesome teacher, encouraging and making it fun! Thankful for all you do! Blessings! Forgot to mention how much I love the beautiful music you play too!
Very ingenious!! Loved it! Thanks for your wonderful art and thanks for sharing my music, Peter.
Thank you very much Antonio :)
Oh!!!!! I LOVED the music!!!!! What a marvelous duo!!!
jan C : Thanks!
Iam not an artist, but I do enjoy watching these videos to relax...
I get mesmerised between the drawing process and the music...
Thank you both! :-)
Carlos Carneiro: thank you!!
So inspired to put a crazy quilt on this line. Thank you so much for sharing your talent we us.
Peter, I love your style and could watch you paint all day :) What I like best is that it totally relaxes me and I absorb what and why you are doing things a certain way. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent- All the best from Canada !
One of my favorites! I've used masking tape for trees...never thought to use it for laundry! Really thinking outside the box! Thanks for sharing .
Thank you very much. So glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
I love it!! You can almost feel the wind.
Nice comment. Thank you :)
Peter, your style of painting is what started me off in watercolor, thank you
Another lovely vignette that shows the beauty of life's simple things.One can feel the wind blowing the clothes on the line.
Nice comment. Thank you :)
I’ll definitely try this. It brings back so many great memories of me and my Mom hanging clothes out on the line.
You’re a very good teacher.
Thank you so much for these tutorials! I've tried many different tutorials and always end up discouraged, and then put my paints away but yours are so fun and beautiful and easy! I can do these and my family is very impressed 😆 ink and watercolor is my favorite anyway, and I'm learning so much from your videos, and can't wait to get started on another each time I finish one. Thank you so much!! 💛
The genius of gifted artists is to make it look this easy. Thank Peter.
Thank you very much Greg. That's a big compliment :)
I absolutely LOVE your work! Style, colour and overall creativity!! Wonderful!
Thank you so much! Greatly appreciated
Cute, clever - don't see many clothes on the line today --- how great they smelled dried in the wind and sun -- good ole days
Great comments and observation. Thanks :)
I tried this when i first started painting. You make it look easy. Mine was terrible!! Going to try it again. Thank you for your talent and sharing it with us
Love your choice of subjects and love your style. Beautiful watercolour.
Keep safe...
You made it all come to life. I can almost feel and smell the clean, fresh breeze. You're so amazing to watch, Peter
Great comment.
Wow, this videos brings me back to my childhood. When we would visit the Waddeneilanden in the north of Holland on our holidays. We were on Schiermonninkoog. The sky sometimes looked like that and the grass would go like that in the wind. Thank you so much for this wonderful memory!!!
Great story Mariette. Thank you for sharing and for watching :)
How relaxing are your videos!
Thank you very much. Greatly appreciated :)
For a beginner this is magic unfolding....thnx so much for sharing ur skills.
You are very welcome. Glad I could help. Peter
Peter thank you so much for your videos - you cannot imagine how helpful they are to people trying to teach themselves to draw and to paint in watercolor - I love all of your videos and I try each and every one of them. I did get a chuckle over one of the comments below where the lady said you don't see many clothes on the line any longer - she obviously hasn't been to Australia. Seldom do you see a house on any given day that does not have clothes hanging on the line - so this one was very appropriate for our area of the world. Thank you again for your tutorials and please keep them coming - the piano music was so beautiful and soothing.
Thank you very much Debbie. Hearing that makes this all worthwhile for me :) Peter
This wonderful painting reminded me of my childhood, when my mother hung laundry outside on a makeshift line. Thank you, you are my favorite painter.
Very kind words. I thank you, Peter
It wsn't until I came across your work that I realised it was ok to use more than one medium. I thought I had to be a purist but I think I am a mixed media artist, in training. Thanks
Thankyou for sharing your beautiful work,always enjoy along with the inspiration .
My God!! Very very nice. Poetry on the paper.
You are too kind Enrique. Thank you! :)
I know that this is an older video, but there’s just something about clothes on the line! Thanks Peter!
I have two comments after watching you paint: (1) you have a highly developed right brain - reflected in the intuitive choice of the subject you painted and (2) you are an amazing teacher. More power to you !!
I know you did this years ago, but I ran across it today & absolutely loved doing it! Thank you for your tutorials!
Simply beautiful!
Thank you very much Agnes. So glad you enjoyed it :)
Excellent
You're so sweet, Peter, replying to every comment! So Canadian and so very kind (but I repeat myself lol). Love your work and I follow all your tutorials. Thank you!
I just painted this. It was quick and one of the most fun paintings I've done as a beginner. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
Thank you very much Kim. That is what I like to hear :)
REally really love this!
Loved the idea! Beautiful ❤
Great demos for student artists to learn, follow
Im new to watercolour and this tutorial is lovely. I can nearly feel the wind and smell the fresh air. I will be watching from now on Peter. Thank you for sharing. Geraldine
You are most welcome. Thank you for watching :)
I love this style and your work. I find your work so nostalgic and just lovely. I will continue to watch your videos and keep trying with a minimal number of swear words… thanks for sharing your talents
Stunning work! This is one of my favorites! Not only for the art and the ingenious tape tip, but for the nostalgia it brings to me. Thank you!
Great comment! Thank you :)
Thank you Peter-making a lovely, lively painting from a line of washing.
Thank you very much :)

Absolutely loved watching this. So evocative in a story telling way. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful skills
Excellent, thanks Peter
You're very welcome. Thank you :)
Fantastic and so fun to watch.
Thank you very much. So glad you enjoyed it :)
Thanks for sharing, Peter. This is one idea I have actually used. But, only on cold press paper to mask out old wind worn trees. I really like how you used it.
Thank you very much. So glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
It’s wonderful ❤️
Love this! Thankyou for sharing😀
Beautiful
I love your methods
Thank you very much. So glad you enjoy them :)
You do such wonderful work.
Thank you so much. Always nice to hear :)
I love this!
Totally love this lesson. I used the idea and painted one for Christmas with a Santa Clause suit hanging on the line. Then another with our high school football team t-shirts. Would be cute as a baby gift, too, with infant clothes on the line. Thank you for inspiring me to try line and wash. Love it, even though it terrified me at first. ALOHA!
Aloha MaryAnne. Sounds like some great takes on this image.
Love your work! Thank you for sharing..
Love this one as well! Putting clothes out is one of my favorite things! (still very common in NL) Nothing like crawling in a fresh set of sheets off the line! I even put it out in the dead of winter! So fresh! (sorry, maybe a bit tmi) 😊. I’m so happy I found your channel! I’m going to try a clothes out painting now! You have inspired me! Thanks Peter!
Great story Eja. Thank you for sharing and for watching :)
What a charming piece, Peter. Made me think I was in the Midwest somewhere, although, I have never been. I could imagine the smell of fall and the feel of a blustery afternoon. Great tip of using the painter's tape, to create the sketchy white space. Thanks so much for doing this video.
Great comments and observation. Thanks :)
Great job peter
Thank you. Bob.
thats how i painted my first Birch trees. great idea
Thank you very much Roger :)
Hi Peter - thank you so much for your generosity in sharing these techniques. I've just finished painting along with this video and am thrilled with the results. I love your colour palette and have learnt a lot about layering and mixing. Your videos are a really valuable resource for newbies to watercolour. Thank you once again for creating and sharing.
Thanks Robby. I'm thrilled as well to hear I've helped you.
Thanks for sharing your talent Peter. You are a huge inspiration.

Line of wash and wash on the line Hahahahaha ^.^ Thank you so much for sharing Peter and I loved the tip on the tape on paper to spare out the white.
All the love from Holland - Lineke ;)

How funny is that? I’m liking it and very clever!
I love this I adore your paintings. Thank you and keep posting the amazing work
Thank you very much. Greatly appreciated :)
I love your line and wash paintings, and your easy-on approach has given me enough confidence to try this painting myself, and it came out pretty good! I'm just doing my own version now. Many thanks for your videos, they are so easy to watch and learn from. I thought I couldn't draw, but someone told me if I could doodle (I can) then I could draw - and it's true!
Great comments! Thank you. And welcome to the club :)
Love your work, creative
Thank you! Cheers!
Watching your paintings is so relaxing. Better than meditating and always a beautiful ending.

Thank you very much :)
Bellissimo, interessante l'uso di questa nuova tecnica ... un altro splendido disegno. Ciao Peter!
Grazie mille. Sempre apprezzato :)
Just as always: you have brilliant and simple ideas that mark you as a genuine artist.
I loved the tip on using a masking tape instead of a masking fluid.
Using a very limited palette is also another great idea.
Both mean that Art does not have to be so complicated and expensive to look Beautiful.
Thank you for sharing, and all the best for you.
Very true comments. Thank you very much!
Fantastic little picture. I'll be trying this for sure. Thank you Peter.
Brilliant in its simplicity!!! Peter, I love your lessons.

Thanks Marina. So glad I could help.
Another lovely one Peter quite different from your others, I feel so relaxed that I do not want to get up now. Isabel
LOL. Thank you very much Isabel :)
