Part 12 (penultimate) of setting up new gardens, studios and ponds
and life in Lincolnshire: As you know I have watched all 12 parts
you have done. And you can be proud of the accomplishments you
have made the yard and garden look great as well as the flowers.
You have put a lot of work into this and it shows, not to mention
all of the videoing you have done to share it with us. It looks
like you had a good wing ding of a party the BBQ looks good. I
like your studio it’s like a man cave that’s what I
call my living room at my place. Very good job and look forward
to seeing more.

henrycems has made a comment on Part 1 of 5 - Painting my way
through life: For the first time since watching your videos I
am speechless. You showed a great deal of talent at the very beginning.
I really like the one of the church and cemetery. My group the
Cemetery Research Group I have a few cemeteries that I want to
paint and I will study the ones you did to see how to do it. I
have had trouble with the tombstones mine always look weird. Looking
forward to the next 4 videos.
CelticReject has made a comment
on Making Coffee and Occasional tables in Oak Part 4 of 4: It
must fill you with a tremendous satisfaction to look at your table
when finished and think ' I MADE That '! Great stuff. Has inspired
me to take up woodworking in the new year. Thanks.
So glad you emailed me to notify
me that you posted this video. For some reason I am no longer
subscribed to your YouTube channel. When I saw your finished work
I thought WOW! I’ll bet your subjects really liked this!
I got a new computer for Christmas and have been spending hours
and hours trying to get it set up (Have been working on it since
Dec 21 and yesterday I finally got everything working!) I think
that may be the reason all my YouTube subscriptions have disappeared.
Hope your Holidays where fantastic and Happy New Year!

Dear sir, I am a pastelist who is
also handicapped and have a harder time of standing when painting
in Plein Air. After watching your video, “The Foundation
to Pastel Painting” once again, I think the easel that you
use throughout the painting demonstrations, the Kneesel, would
help me. But the problem I cannot find anyone who sells this easel,
especially not here in the United States. If I may be so bold
as to ask where and/or who you got yours from? I really appreciate
any help you may be able to provide.
Thank you James W. Carroll

Beginners/Intermediate - Painting a double Portrait in Watercolour:
Wow,
I don’t think I have seen you work so tight before. I learned
more from this video about painting people than any other I have
seen by anyone. I may try a portrait for my cousin who is a John
Lennon fan. I am looking for the right photo to go by. This video
is a gem for anyone wanting to learn loose and tight watercolor
methods, very well done.
This needs to be on one of your DVDs.

- Painting a double Portrait in Watercolour: Hi Peter, Thank you
so very much for such an amazing video, this is excellent what
a great learning tool, this is exactly what I was hoping for.
I am amazed what you were able to do with these portraits in such
a small scale, they are just wonderful, you are truly gifted.
The scenery and the colors you used to paint the scenery is a
real compliment to the figures. Your client should be delighted
to have this portrait. You have inspired me to try a portrait
myself, I am very grateful.

Taxidermy - Hello, I want to thank you very much for your videos
on preparing fish mounts. I am doing some research in Nicaragua
and will need to do some fish mounts using local materials. I
wanted to ask you how you think the weight of the fish after being
mounted with the sawdust method compares to the actual weight
of the fish? Is it much heavier? What are your thoughts on using
cotton instead of (or maybe in addition to sawdust)? Thanks again
for posting these videos - they are a huge help! I haven't done
much of this before. The fish I'll be mounting are croaker, weakfish,
jack and catfish. Many thanks, Kara

them when I get them done. I am waiting on some tube watercolor
paint to arrive I ordered, still trying different brands to see
what I like best.
Again thank you for sharing with us.

Free demonstration to a small local art club - Watercolour - Cuba..:
This was a real treat to watch this film of you talking and teaching
a group. I remember when you moved back you said you wanted to
do this. You are a very fine teacher and we lost when you retired.
The painting was great I like the way you did the reflection of
the building in the street very simple. I am glad you talked a
little about Ron Ranson I am reading one of his books. Great job
with this my friend hope all is well take care.
Hi Peter, - I love your oil pastels
demonstration on You Tube. The sky is very good indeed, in fact
it almost looks as if it's been painted in oils, not pastels.
- I'm an aspiring amateur artist who, some months , bought a box
of expensive ago Sennellier Oil Pastels, which are pretty good.
- Are Unison pastels significantly superior to Sennellier ? Perhaps
you could please let me know. - I'd be good to hear from you,
Peter. - Best wishes -Dave, UK
Hi Peter, Many thanks for sending
the DVDs so swiftly. I have enjoyed watching them and know that
they will be of great assistance to me in the future. All the
best. Evelyn Callender

your formal training from your professional instructor in the
past, and your very creative passion shows through so well in
your video's !! I love the idea how you use the very basics to
make a very life like and long lasting piece of nature's art.

Painting Flowers Loosely in watercolour part 2 of 2: Beautifully
done and very inspiring!
Dear Peter,
Cycling from my home in Oegstgeest
(NL) to my son in Southeastern
France (Vallauris) I passed this chapel and stopped for a moment
to
take pictures. Seeing all you undertook to up-lift the chapel
and to
make it the center of the universe, I regret that I did not know
and
failed to take the time to descend for a moment. Thanks to your
website, I now know what is inside and I can appreaciate your
art and
dedication. I fear that most motorists never notice and just pass
by.
All the best to you. Next time, I'll take more notice.

A complete demonstration in watercolour on an imperial sheet,
cafe scene Vienna: Wow. The fortitude that it would take to undertake
a painting this complex in front of an audience would be daunting.
Then to have it turn out to be this beautiful, glowing image is
mind boggling.
The color pattern grabbed me when you placed the red bodice on
the woman on the middle left, but when you added that tree with
the wonderful golden yellow and green, the whole painting started
to glow. Amazing, and as you said, I do love to make marks. Thank
you for showing this.

Volume 2 of Painting figures within flowers: wow I really enjoyed
this thank you!
Hi Peter,I thought I would let you
know that the DVD's arrived today and I have
spent the day watching you! :-)Many thanks for sending them so
promptly, watching you paint is truly
inspirational if not a little intimidating ;-)I have art and creativity
in me in mind, but every time I try and do
anything 'arty' I get frustrated and disappointed with the results...
I do have a tendancy to be too critical of anything I do ( not
just art
related ) so this doesnt help....... but I cant help feeling as
I watch more of your brilliant techniques that a lot of it sometimes
relies on
being able to draw ( which I cannot do however hard I try :-(
) this worries me as to the success that I may have with these
different
mediums that I have never tried before ie: pastels, watercolours
etc.Anyway, I will try some of the easy things you suggest and
hope for the
best.... I really would love to be able to paint with pastels
successfully as this medium interests me the most...... I am able
to do
little else at the moment given my circumstances with ill health
etc and I think that it will give me a lot of joy if I can master
it to even a basic standard.
Many thanks and best wishes
Sally.

My friend I want to thank you so
much for doing the demonstration for me and for making it personal
to me I cannot thank you enough. I have watched it twice and taking
notes as to what you say about building tones gradually with thin
paint. Also about how the flesh and the knife blade reflect what
is around it. The way you added a more interesting background
is great it adds more interest to the overall painting. I also
learned that if you mess up you can save it like you did with
the little finger, I would have scraped the whole thing but you
fixed it and made it work.
Again thank you my friend.
We are having a prayer meeting tonight and we will say a prayer
for your health my friend God bless.
