Painting a beach! And the cicadas get louder as the video progresses!

I may as well be painting 'en plein air'. My studio doors were open, and the noise of the cicadas slowly intensified. And I wasn't aware until I started editing.

Part 2 "Booderee Botanic Gardens" Step-by-step Modern Landscape Technique - A Large Acrylic Painting

PART TWO: The middle stages of painting a modern landscape in acrylic. Here I cover the base layer with more opaque paint. It's a step-by-step demonstration in real time, with commentary. I recommend you watch the first video before this one, though. The subject matter is the Booderee Botanic Gardens in Jervis Bay, NSW, Australia. When you can travel again, I recommend everyone to visit this beach side garden. It is pristine! (Google “Green Patch” for camping.)

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!

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. By my calculations, it's about a quarter of the price of the padded flat paper.)

Fast-forward art for a change! How to use a grid to transfer a photo onto a page: use this for drawing or painting.

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!

You Can Paint This! Watercolor Demonstration of Hallstatt, the Classic Austrian Village.

I hope you enjoy this painting challenge! It’s a difficult subject with a lot of detail. You might like to start with the sketch, or download mine (warts and all!) to print onto watercolour paper. My subject is Hallstatt is in Austria. It is a classic lake side village, nestled below high mountains. We visited more than ten years ago, on a cool January day. No tourists, except for us! 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.

Snow Scene Watercolor Beginners Painting Tutorial with Free Photo Reference

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! The photograph was taken by my daughter, Natalie Peters, on her recent skiing trip to France. It is the Col de la Fenetre near Chamonix. (Thanks Nat!)

Acrylic Painting on Paper: Plein Air: Demonstration with Commentary: at Stanley

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.

Plein-air Watercolor Painting in the Wind – Demonstration for Beginners and Intermediate Levels

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.

Plein Air Painting Boats in Watercolour: real-time demonstration on the wharf.

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 at Swansea: easy beginners, big brush, creative style.

Plein air watercolor painting: big brush creative style. Easy beginners level demonstration, with real-time commentary. I battle the elements with this watercolour.

Plein air watercolor painting on a pristine beach at St Helens. Easy Beginner Level.

Plein air watercolor painting on a pristine beach, with a warm breeze! This is my version of heaven! Easy beginners level demonstration, with real-time commentary. This area is called Burns Bay, which is near St Helens on the east coast of Tasmania, Australian. The weather is warm and misty. https://goo.gl/maps/2CmvNJkesQMvPsqj7 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. I have used a large 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. I also use the Joseph Zbukvic Aquario mop: listed below. The paper I am using is Arches Cold Pressed, 21cm x 41cm My paints are Daniel Smith. Their names are listed below, and I have a video where I show how I fill the watercolour palette with tube paints: https://youtu.be/GUPUW-S4GVQ 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. https://shirleypeters.wixsite.com/learntopaint Support I have a Patreon Channel where you can support my quest to get everyone on this planet painting!!

Plein Air Watercolour: Easy Beginners Level: Creative Painting Style: Step by Step in Real Time.

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. (Not listed below because I cannot find them online.) I suggest you will find them in your local art shop. The paper I am using is Arches Cold Pressed, 21cm x 41cm Block pad. My paints are Daniel Smith. Their names are listed below, and I have a video where I show how I fill the watercolour palette with tube paints: https://youtu.be/GUPUW-S4GVQ .
