Easy beginner level watercolour. This is a simple wash painting, with lifting out for clouds, and not much drawing skill required for the snow area. I think I tend to complicate these scenes sometimes, and I’d like you to be critical when you see me choosing to do something that might not be the right thing!! (Ha..

How to stretch watercolour paper: drawing, painting a classic Hallstatt scene, all with commentary. Thank you to Maria Kellner who has corrected my error in this video: After a lifetime of my cutting off the tape, Maria tells me that you don't need to cut it off, if you are framing the watercolour in the traditional way. You glue your paper onto gator board which is used as the frame-backing. Brilliant. I'll do a follow up video with this new knowledge. Obviously, I'm not used to my works being framed! I mount them onto canvas, so I do need a clean edge. Or they were used in publishing, and were never framed!! But I now have a challenge: Next video!! _______________________________________________________________________________________ Warning, this could put you to sleep! Download the reference photo Youtube Support Material: https://shirleypeters.wixsite.com/learntopaint Gummed paper tape: https://www.eckersleys.com.au/gum-paper-tape Paper: I'm using Arches Paper in a pad, but when I look at the prices online, they seem to be crazily expensive at the moment. Not sure why...! So I might start using my roll of paper when these pads are finished. If you want to buy a roll, and cut it down to size, you will have more affordable paper. Although, you might need to use this wet stretching method, as the paper has a curl. Or you can wet the curled sheet, then lay it flat to dry. My Australian Art Supply shop for large watercolour rolls: https://www.artscene.com.au/Shopping/paper/watercolour-paper/fabriano-watercolour-studio-paper. At the moment: 300 gsm | 1.5m x 10 m | Roll AU$172.85 plus delivery. (You can do the maths, and maybe look at your local art supply for large paper rolls.

I started at the National Art School with teacher training, then moved into the commercial world of graphic design. Illustration eventually took over, and that returned me to painting full time. I paint in three mediums: watercolour, acrylic and oils. Normally I paint large works, and exhibit them in galleries: Studio ONE88 in Katoomba is my current gallery. I always have a few works from each show that remain unsold, and these are on my web site. They are for sale, and I organise delivery with shipping companies who know how to handle fine art. I live in Mulgoa, 60kms west of Sydney, on the edge of the Blue Mountains. My husband is Bob Peters, a photographer who is now retired. We have two wonderful children who are both successful in their careers. A two-year old Cavoodle named Honey completes the family. We have a "mini-farm" of 5 acres, and most of my non-painting time is spent gardening. To keep my brain active I bought an old piano ($50), stripped it down, rebuilt it, then traded it in for a good piano! That is now my other hobby: learning to play! If you draw or paint any of my pictures, I love to see your work. Feel free to email them to me: shirleypeters000@gmail.com Have fun sketching, and stay safe!

Download the reference photo and the sketch: Youtube Support Material: https://shirleypeters.wixsite.com/learntopaint * My video was plagued with failures: mic not plugged in properly, focus on the last section was “hunting”: moving in and out of focus.

In this painting tutorial, I demonstrate how watercolour can be applied very wet and manipulated to create the effect of distant snowy hills. By adding shadows we can create rock formations, and with my favourite white, make the two dimensions look 3D. I think this painting is a "beginner level", yet advanced painters should enjoy it as well. It's just fun to splash paint over the page, and leave the fiddly bits to last!

I often paint acrylics on paper: sort of a mix of watercolour technique with traditional painting. It’s a halfway position which gives me freedom to be creative. It is very forgiving, as one can re-paint sections. This video has the usual hiccups: camera fail, I fail! I used voice over in the middle to avoid having to dump this video. I hope that’s OK with you all. If you would like to try this painting, go to my new “Learn to Paint” web site to download a royalty-free copy of the photograph. It's on the "Plein Air Tasmania" page. https://shirleypeters.wixsite.com/learntopaint I have used a 2” flat brush from Reeves, called a spalter. (Not listed below because I cannot find them online.) I suggest you will find them in your local art shop. The rigger brush was bought in Hobart from an art supply shop. It is the "Mont Matre" brand, and it's not a top quality brush. See links below for better quality: ie stiffer, longer bristles. The paper I am using is Bee Paper Rough Watercolor Roll It is 30” x 5 yards for US$34 – bargain price. BUT, it’s not true watercolour paper, and I don’t really recommend it. But I’ve bought a roll so I’ll use it anyway. Maybe I’ll paint it with a gesso ground next time. https://amzn.to/399UqDL For good quality large paper, consider Fabriano. https://www.jacksonsart.com/en-au/fabriano-watercolour-paper-roll-140lb-300gsm-5x33ft-not Beginner Paints: Non-Toxic Chroma Chromacryl Acrylic Paint Tubes 10 Pack, Assorted Colour, https://amzn.to/2LYDtlZ Not the five tube set that I bought, but still good value for 10 tubes.

I’ve never painted in such a wind before, but the view was beautiful, and I only had one day left in Swansea, Tasmania. So I found a sheltered spot in the rocks, and did my painting. But there were a few times when I thought my painting would be ripped! Luckily it survived, as did I.

I had lots of fun painting this plein air watercolor at the Wooden Boat Centre at tiny Franklin in Tasmania: it's a real-time demonstration that shows the reality of plein air painting: passing visitors, a barking dog and then some guys taking my boat! I found this scene quite challenging, but I'm sure most mid level artists will enjoy it. Btw, when the barking dog was too loud we removed the audio, and sometimes clipped the video altogether. There was also machining noise at times, but that has remained.

Plein air watercolor painting: big brush creative style. Easy beginners level demonstration, with real-time commentary. I battle the elements with this watercolour. I was perched on a sloping patch of prickly weed, and the tide was incoming, which meant half my rocks might have become inundated. Luckily I was able to do a quick painting, and I like the sketchy feel of this “ugly duckling” scene. We have started a month-long holiday in Tasmania!

I love plein air painting! This is an easy beginners creative style watercolour that anyone can master! A real time demonstration with commentary, where I discuss what paints I'm choosing, and why. You can see the 'wetness' of the paper, and how the paints run and merge as the painting dries. I'm using watercolours, but you can do exactly the same with acrylics! Use a big brush, and work on paper. We have started a month-long holiday in Tasmania! We are travelling in our motorhome, and we plan to camp, paint and make videos as often as possible. This beach is called East Beach, which is near Georgetown at the top of Tasmania. The weather is cool and windy, but no rain. I have used a large flat brush from Reeves, called a spalter.

Australia is in the middle of the fire season, and after years of drought, it’s the worst fire season on record. Although not affected by the fires, we live near the bush. We have had to self-evacuate a couple of times. Luckily, the fires have stayed 15km away from our home. But sadly, many people have died, thousands of homes are lost, and untold numbers of livestock and wild animals have perished. But, we have felt the love from around the world, and millions of dollars have been donated to the victims and the volunteer fire fighters. So a big thank you, and a virtual hug to you all, for your kind thoughts, and donations. ______________________________________________ Acrylic Painting Demonstration: Brunswick Heads There are two elements to this video: preparing a box palette of acrylic paints so that paints are ready to use, and easy to access!

"Sunrise" This video is about blending. I paint a beautiful sunrise sky that goes from blue to pink, and then the harbour waters that reflect the sky. The land element is comparatively simple. I demonstrate how to achieve smooth blends with acrylic paint, using white as the blending medium. I use "cheap" paints to show that advanced acrylic painting is possible with basic materials. You do not need to spend a fortune to achieve realistic results. This painting is probably best for an intermediate painter, but a beginner will learn from its simple structure! Maybe paint a blue background without the pink.

"Kiama Beach" Welcome to my long video! I have many issues to discuss as I paint. First it’s about using basic materials that are not expensive.

A simple How-To video that demonstrates how I mount an acrylic painting that has been done on paper, onto a canvas. It is a solid, permanent method that I've been using for ten years. I use Bondcrete as a glue. (Maybe try any white wood glue that dries clear) I water it down to about 70% glue – 30% water. I paint it on both contact surfaces, place the paper in place, and then add a final coat over the top of the painting. This helps to seal the edges and toughens the surface. I suggest you try this on a small painting at first! My original efforts were on huge 120cm wide works, and I was often in a mess! But I've never lost a painting using this method. And I do use it for my own watercolour paintings, but I'm reluctant to recommend this, as the paint can loosen and smear when you are applying the Bondcrete. But if you can spray the solution on first, or fix the paint with a suitable fixer, that should hold the paint in place. Please experiment and let me know in the comments if you have success.

I love to visit empty beaches in winter. Just a few people, the occasional dog, and lots of seagulls. The sand is untrodden and smooth, and the waves uninterrupted by swimming crowds.

“Gems on the Beach” A beach littered with volcanic rocks, and edged with clear blue-green water. It is a ‘portrait’ format, and has all the elements for a busy, beautiful watercolour painting. It is recorded in real time, with commentary. And I apologise for the cropping of the image, and knocking the tripod! The rich green teal colour that I used in the water was Cobalt Teal Blue.

I love this scene, as it has a simple structure, simple colour choices, and a large area of harbour to make doing a “wash” possible. I hope you enjoy watching me paint it. Location for this photograph, which I think is a fantastic spot for Plein Air painting. Larkin Street Lookout, Waverton NSWnext to Balls Head Reserve Bay, north of Sydney. REFERENCE PHOTO: You can view, and download the photo from my website, print it out, and use it as a guide if you'd like to paint along. Website: http://www.shirleypeters.com MY MATERIALS: Paper: Arches Cold Pressed (artist quality.) 31 x 41cm Pad (not loose) If this is beyond your budget, Canson make a cheaper paper. You won’t get such an even coating of wash, but it’s good to practice on. Paint: Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolours: very important to use rich colours. The cheaper “studio” or “students” quality are not as easy to mix dark shades. If you use these, the painting might look pale when it dries. Don’t blame yourself, blame the materials!! Brushes used in this video: Watercolour Mops, Really Fat Chinese Brush, Chisel Flat. I don’t have a favourite brand, as I buy brushes from many sources. My latest, favourite, mop brushes (fat, round with a point) are from this website: www.borntosketch.com That said, I have just ordered an expensive pair of large brushes from Escoda in Spain. I’ll do a materials video soon, and show you what they are like. BASIC COLOURS that I recommend for starting out are below. But feel free to choose any colours you like! There are no rules, and lots of beautiful shades to choose from! (The names I have used are mainly the Daniel Smith names. Different brands use different names, sometimes!) Two yellows, two reds, one purple, two blues, one green, two browns, one black. When I say “two” I mean a cool and warm version of each colour: Imagine a Lemon and an orange. Lemon yellow (cool) Permanent Orange (warm) Alizarin Crimson (cool) Perylene Red (warm) Carbozole Purple (mid) French Ultramarine (cool) Cerulean Blue (warmish) Sap Green (mid) Burnt Sienna (warm) Burnt Umber (cool) Black I buy the 15ml tubes and squeeze the paint into pans.

This townscape painting demonstrates how a complex scene can be painted using tonal washes, from light to dark, with details added at the end. It is a complex image, and therefore a good challenge to get the cobwebs working. Although my sketch is fast-forward, the painting is real time, and by watching my progress, you can paint along. Maybe hit the pause while you mix a colour or have a think… or scrub through quickly to see the final result. Download the photo from my website, and use it as a guide if you'd like to paint along.
