  • Mandalas are one of my favorite things to draw. Weird circular patterns, and I get into a zone when I draw them.

    i love this style of drawings. it's all symmetrical and then suddenly "he, hi, i'm a plant. can i join to?" and peter is like "yeah sure why the hell not". love it.

    Most people "don't draw in class, do your class work"
    Peter "just draw if you are in a boring class or meeting"

      Do that. Because I do it all the time in class too.

      @cirthful 9 років тому +14

      Whenever I have class, and some people are constantly talking, I pay more attention if I'm able to doodle. Otherwise I'll just fall asleep. It's not an excuse to draw...I just take in more info when drawing

    @dylanmorgan5279 7 років тому +2

    Your mindset and thought while drawing is incredible. You don't really see art as just putting lines and patterns on a paper, you see it as building something spectacular and beautiful. You have a remarkable ability to see past what is on the surface and find a deeper meaning to your art. To ordinary people, your art is simply lines and patterns on some paper. But to you, it's almost as if it's a structure, coming entirely from your mind. Your art and your mind is a thing of beauty and fascinating complexity.

    Hey! What you said about how all art exists already.. This is exactly how I approach each piece of work I make. It was interesting to hear someone else say that. I work as though I am merely materializing the work that already exists but has not yet reached it's potential possibility of existence. Thanks for sharing that thought, and I absolutely love your drawings!

    this was the video that got me started drawing mandalas, and even now years later i still remember how fresh and wonderful it is to have something organic growing through the geometric lines of a mandala! i just drew one with fishes weaving through the design today :) thanks peter for being such an inspiration over the years!

      Gets to fast, therefore he should speak slower, to produce calmer effects.
      Speak slow be heard

    Peter you seriously inspired me to pick up a pen again. I thought I was losing a part of me for so long not being able to draw! i have been stuck in a limbo of sorts with my art and the way you describe and feel about art is really getting the creative juices flowing again you're reminding me everyday why I draw and why I love art so much thank you!!

    @caramelllkid 9 років тому

    The thing you said in this video, about the "hidden art" you must find, it is so close to what I think sometimes. I think that every piece of paper has their own soul and I just put my pen on the paper and start finding how the soul of the paper looks like... :) It is so amazing, when you can just draw without stressing of what it is gonna be. It just goes on and you end up with something amazing every time. Thank you for your drawings and all the inspiration I get from you !

  • @RandoManOfWonders
    @RandoManOfWonders 9 років тому +18

    Hey Peter!
    I was wondering if you would consider adding the draw times either at the end of the video or in the description below, so that way the viewers can have an idea of how long you spent on the drawing or doodle, to see how focused and how particular you are about the drawing, as well as how much precision that you used in creating the art.

    • @peter_draws
      @peter_draws  9 років тому +19

      That's a good idea, I might start adding that to the end slate in the future. Thanks for the input. :)

    not just that your drawings are amazing, but the way you see art is so different and interesting.

    i can tell you care about art and that you love doing it.
    i hope you have a beautiful life

    I suffer with a sleeping disorder and I find it incredibly soothing to fall asleep watching your videos, especially when I'm finding it hard to stay asleep, I'll just whack some earphone in and sleep, so if I wake up I'll be lulled back into sleep by your awkwardly comforting voice :)

    I agree on what you said about drawing things that rise up from the page. I've always felt that if we can come up with an image or say a weird sea creature ....who's to say if it doesn't really exist ? I have had what I would call "Surprise" drawings / doodles that actually end up to be a pretty cool piece. A welcome gift.
