- A quick and fun, Wet into Wet demonstration of a Pond in Mist painting. Easy to follow and learn.
This wet in to wet demonstration was done in a smaller size, allowing the viewer to get in closer to the painting and better see my techniques. The same techniques I use on all of my large paintings
My videos are great for beginners and seasoned artist alike. These demos are intended to show my techniques and not a finished work of art.
Paint: Winsor: Newton Sap Green, Burnt Sienna, Ultramarine, Sepia, Yellow Ochre
da Vinci: Quinacridone Fuchsia and Phthalo Blue.
Paper:
STRATHMORE
Strathmore 500 series Mixed Media Sketchbook.
This is a smooth, off white paper made from pure cotton rag.
Colors appear deep and saturated on this luxurious paper.
I almost always use 140lb paper
It is less prone to wrinkle when saturated.
Brushes: 1/2" and a detail brush.
I use less expensive brushes when
painting on location and for my videos
They hold less paint and are easier to clean. And,
tend to have stiffer bristles. Good for lifting paint.
Thank you for Watching!

Hi Perter. I’m fairly new to painting and I was honestly getting nowhere. My art always looked childish and well, awful to be honest. I’ve only recently discovered you and I can honestly say that my work has come on in leaps and bounds since watching your videos. Thank you so much, I’m now beginning to be proud of my work and loving the end results. Thank you again and again ten fold, your talent is endless. 🙏🤗
For a beginner it’s comforting to see clearly labelled paints on the side. Thnx.
Thanks so much. Glad you find them helpful. Peter :-)
Oh my, beautiful; it's soothing just looking at it.
Lei è proprio eccezionale, quei tocchi che si alternano tra profondità e primo piano ... anche solo arrivarci vicino mi renderebbe molto felice .
I suoi dipinti e video sono meravigliosi , grazie per i suoi tutorial magnifici.
I REALLY like the different levels you've been able to capture/indicate here! Nicely done Peter!! Thank you! Paul
Love this and all your paintings/ videos Thank you 😊 this is lovely
It was startling to me how the painting changed after you added the grass. It had looked very undefined - as you named it, in a mist - and then putting those grasses in - POW! It became three dimensional. I want to try this.
Thank you so much!!! Beautiful work, subtleness in shadow and colors, perfect together!
I just attempted this piece and I'm happy with how it turned out. I didn't have the same colours as I'm a very early-on beginner, but my substitutions turned out okay. Very much looking forward to checking out some of your other videos!
Thanks Pete. I enjoy your videos so much. I have a small painting from someone else but I want to do it the way you do your grassses. I think this was more helpful to me. I have done other small paintings by you. I'm an absolute beginner. I'm a taking an ink and pen class this semester through my local community college because of you and Chris.
Beautiful picture, I love the foreground reeds......thanks very much Peter 👍🏻
+Keith Payne . Thanks again Keith. Glad you're still enjoying them.
Wow - your brushwork with the grasses is incredible! Wonderful to watch this unfold! Thank you for sharing this with us!
+Vicki Wood . Thank you Vicki. There is a lot of "just let it happen" with this type of painting. Never try to be too precise.
Love this little picture.
Simple, and fresh.
Thank you
God Bless
Thoughtful comments. Thank you :)
Always learn something from you at each video. Thanks for sharing your talents.
Today I bought my first watercolor set and Micron fineliners because of your videos. Thanks a lot for sharing your art with all of us.

I am mesmerized. Great painting instruction, and meditative. I always learn so much from you. Thank you Peter!
+tillygirl56 . Thank you Tillygirl. My passion these days is pen and wash, but thought I'd better start doing a few of my other techniques.
Absolutely wonderful. I watched this several times and painted it a few times. It's a very nice and easy painting to learn from. Thank you for sharing your talent!
+Mario Addis . Hi Mario. Glad to hear you enjoyed and painted this one. Peter
Thanks for all your tutorials!

Большое спасибо за Ваши видео. Ваши картины магические, Вы создаете иллюзию живой природы в движении! у меня же получаются только пятна. Но я буду продолжать учиться по Вашим видео и восхищаться Вашим талантом.
Большое спасибо. Это большой комплимент :)
Wonderful depth of field.
+Suzy Menck . Thank you very much Suzy. Peter
Thank you so much Peter - you've really helped me. I have ET (essential tremors) in the right hand so it's a bit more difficult, especially details ! But your videos are so helpful.
I learn from each of your videos. Thank you! Liked the way you lift paint when it is still wet. Yet, I would wait for more of your pen and wash tutorials. It seems I won't have enough of them ever!
+S Ray . Thanks S Ray. Glad you're still enjoying. Definitely many more pen and wash to come.
As always, very beautiful. Thanks Peter.
Thank you Jelka. Peter

You are very welcome Sir.. Sir I also have a hobby of arts but being an married and jovt. service and on other hand I have to go gym for physic. So I can not spare time for arts
Sir if you get free time then you may mail me at my mail id enjoy99fun@gmail.com

Thank you for sharing your talents through your videos. It's a treat to watch you work!
+Katie Waller . Thank you very much Katie. So glad you found me.
Awesome!. It seems really clear that sharp pointed brushwork (grass heads) is more doable in watercolour compared to oil which I am working with .....at least to me.
A beautiful painting and thanks for sharing your skills with us :)
+pipester48 . It's fun sharing when people want to watch. And, I thank you for that Pipester.
You are Amazing!!

Awesome technique! Thank you for sharing it. 😊

When I was starting my watercolor journey I would watch your videos religiously. Now that I've grown I find that I am more critical of others work than I used to be. (Trust me, I am much harsher on myself.)
I would love to see you branch out beyond 5 by 7 inch wet in wet, with inking to assist you with finer lines, and into other areas of watercolor. I love your style but it feels like you really just stay in your own comfort zone and down budge much from it.
That being said, I still really enjoy your videos and you certainly have perfected the techniques that you do show us on camera. I was also impressed that no pen was used this time, and an actual rigger was used fir the fine lines instead. Keep up the great work, and please. Show us what else you can do with that amazing talent of yours!
Hi. I wouldn't call these little paintings my " comfort zone", but more my niche on youtube. I hate to admit it, but I'm simply not interested in making bigger and longer videos. I do this for fun. I have always worked in many styles and sizes. If you're interested the following link might give you an idea. www.flickr.com/people/7331668@N08/
@@PeterSheelerart thank you for sharing the link! I can totally understand not wanting to sink more time into creating and editing longer videos. And I am glad you proved me wrong. Stunning work sir!
I did not intend to come across as harsh or prove you wrong. But, thank you!
Beautiful images and great videos Peter. I'm just starting out and your limited palette and use of a flat brush is inspiring. Maybe I will have a go and see if I can avoid making mud for a change.. thanks for sharing. Look forward to more.
+Stephen Foster . Thanks so much Stephen. I think a limited palette is the way to start. You learn haw those few colors interact with each other. Then, add new colors into the mix. Also, Learning what makes mud is very important and is learned best when you ruin a good painting.
+Peter Sheeler I know from experience that too many choices will result in poor results for me in anything :) I am fortunate enough to be aware of why I create mud and what I should do to prevent it........then I pick up a brush and unfortunately any good intentions go out of the window along with my 'art'.
On the plus side I enjoy trying.. I will get it!! Thanks
What a great way to put the background out of focus...like a camera would.

The music set the mood perfectly.Thank you for the painting.
Thank you very much. So glad to hear you enjoyed it :)
very nice video, thanks you for share! you are my teacher Peter Sheeler
+Maria del Carmen Sortino . Thank you very much Maria. I'm honoured. Peter
I cant's stop smiling on your comment that you do own a detail brush :) Amazing video, as usual!
Thank you very much Darina :)
Brill.😊
Thank you very much Ian! :)
very nice, i like the videos.
Thank you very much. So glad you enjoy them :)
Wow, that is so beautiful! You make it look so easy. :)
Thank you very much Inger. Very kind. Peter
Peter Sheeler My pleasure :)
Superbe !
Thank you very much :)
I watched this and some of your sky videos when I first started water Colours about 2 years back just rewatched one yesterday and ended up watching a whole bunch again as well those I hadn't seen earlier .I still think they are brilliant and you are such a good artist you make them appear easy and effortless and also give us something we could try to re create .Your recent ones are mostly pen and wash and I realised that was the reason I had stopped watching ....why don't you make some more in just water Colours
Thank you very much. Good to hear you're still painting.
You are right. I do need to get back to some more traditional paintings. Stay tuned :)
Thanks for your prompt reply:-) But just got to say again, fantastic stuff! ideal format for others to learn from, and i have watched a few, yet most will say how to paint such and such, then leave everything important out! What the.....heck?
it's not the length of time that i mind for any video, but how that person guides you.
So i'm hoping you keep this format for the future:-)
Other teachers take note, a bench mark? (can't believe 12 people have hit the dislike button, oh well, can't please everyone i suppose)
Thanks again. As long as I please some I'm happy :)
Wow awesome tutorial Peter Sheleer, i've subs you! I love it because I'm also a artpainter
Thank you very much David :)
You are welcome Peter👍🎸
You are welcome Peter!!
Brilliant painting Peter.
New subscriber here.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much Amna. Very glad to have you as a new subscriber.
I'm very impressed with your color mixing techniques. I've been studying your work and you've been very consistent with the same colors for over 2 years!! How did you, and how long did it take you to settle on your palette?
Thank you. This limited group of colors was chosen for my urbansketching. Simply those I used most often from my larger palette. I added a couple more for these videos and now stick with this group for consistency.
Beautiful ^_^
Thank you very much Muhamad. Peter
Peter, I am assuming the board is laying flat or at a slight angle? I have been enjoying your ink and watercolor demos. Thank you. You got me excited to getting back to watercolors.
Thank you very much Ricardo. Yes. Flat in my lap
Круто !!!!
Большое спасибо! :)
Another fantastic painting! I love your ink and wash but I love your watercolors even more!! You inspire me....I want to paint your beautiful clouds and this misty scene....so beautiful! What kind and size detail brush are you using? Also...I'm guessing you go back and clean up your paints afterwards?? I don't mix my brush in different colors like you do...guess I'm afraid to get them dirty or contaminated...so I wind up with too much water in my paints!! I'm going to try it your way! Thanks so much for sharing!
+nknana3 . The paint is worn of my detail brush so no idea. Get mixing and make a mess. Only way to learn, and have fun ;)
+Peter Sheeler I did it!! I painted all three of your watercolors....and I love them, especially the misty scene. I can't wait for you to post more!! Thank you so much! One more question for you....the paint in your palette...you have it on paper (how is it stuck to your palette?), do you spray it with water before you start painting to revive it? It doesn't look like fresh paint but it also doesn't look very wet. (Trying to find my balance between being too wet and too dry!). Again, many thanks!!
+nknana3 . Two sided tape. But the tap is ruining my palette so may come up with different idea. My paints and brush are never very wet. If I need it wetter I'll wet the paper. Congratulations, sound like you're really having fun. Peter
Very beautiful. I found something which you forgot :)
You never used the pen in this pen and wash :)
Another interesting thing about this painting is that it has warmer distant horizon and cooler proximal foreground.
I had painted few paintings like this few years ago with gouache. Don't know how to share them here.
I realize how difficult it is to paint those grass blades, without overdoing them and attracting too much attention.
You have shown you are a master.
+Dheeraj Kattula . Yikes! Thanks for the heads up on the title. Guess I've just typed pen and wash too many times and now its automatic. By switching the warm and cool I feel it gives more of a sunny morning mist feel.
+Dheeraj Kattula . Sorry Dheeraj. Missed the second half of your comment. As always, you are very flattering.
Something that I painted years ago, in a similar loose style. Hope if I do today I would do better. askdheeraj.wordpress.com/2012/03/02/wild-flowers-and-grass-paintings/
+Dheeraj Kattula . Hi Dheeraj. I think those paintings look great. We're always our own worst critic. When posting a comment Dheeraj, please don't reply to any comment string older than a day. Start a new one as this appeared way back in comments and I almost missed it. Don't mean to sound rude, but I'd hate to miss one and not reply to you. Thanks, Peter
Dheeraj Kattula wow dheeraj your paintings are lively and beautiful
I have a picture just like this that I took about a month ago!
+Merrie Tulanko . You should paint it while the memory is fresh. Peter
merci pour cette fraicheur dans l'œuvre! (quelles sont les caractéristiques de votre brosse? merci! Georges.
How are you getting all that granulation in the foreground?
Nice work Sir, this video would be more useful if we get access to the image of completed seen.
This is great as well as your others. I am a beginner watercolorist, and love your style. How can we support you? Do you have a Patreon account set up?
Thank you very much John. No need for support. I do it because I enjoy sharing it. :)
Very giving of you. Thank you again and look forward to learning so much from your style! Please keep posting.
Thank you for taking us through it all in real time...and the music is lovely , as well. You mentioned this is a piece that you downsized for the sake of the lesson...what size do you normally work in? And...what paper do you use...as in weight?
+photonmom . Thank you very much! I work from very small to about 4 x 5 feet. I do watercolour on canvas and hope to do a tutorial on this in the future. I use 2 papers. Arches 140lb hot press and Strathmore 90 lb 500 series paper. Both cotton rag papers. Peter
Wow!! I have tried to do watercolor on larger than 20xs30 inches and find it hard to control...Kudos to you! Yes..the paint on canvas gives it a great style. Very good! Thank you for the reply...
Do you have a website where I can follow your work?
Hi Peter, I have enjoyed your videos for quite a while and, only recently, started painting watercolors... I am a total beginner and when I tried this, which seems quite simple, I had a few issues:
- the colors spread out much faster than yours creating a mess... I use 140lb Arches cold press with W&N artists pan paints, so I assume the problem is either that I soaked the paper more than you did (hard to judge from the video how much water you put on the paper) or I am putting too much water on my brush when I paint the strokes of the background bushes and trees
- I have been getting a lot of back runs on the edge of the foreground grasses, I wonder if the 20 degrees angle of my paper board is one of the issue, where water from the mid section of the painting comes down quickly into the foreground
- I don't have a sap green - I tried to simulate it with some Indian yellow and ultramarine blue, and that didn't work so well - is there a better way to mix a nice vivid light green like the one you used?
Do you have any advice?
Thanks and congratulations on this wonderful channel!
Hello Francesco. Sap green is hard to mix. try adding a little yellow ochre to your mix.
Knowing how wet/dry to keep your brush and paper can't be taught on a video. Every paper absorbs differently and every brush holds water at different levels. Even the humidity in your hone will have an effect. It's something learned through practice and experience. I recommend practicing on a sheet of paper with different levels of moisture from top to bottom.
Peter: Am I correct in thinking that you use pan colours as opposed to tube? I seem to be seeing pans on your palette.
+Tony Cook . Hi Tony. They're tube paints squeezed onto slips of paper.
