Drawing with Peter: Gathering Inspo, Trying out a Cool Pen, and Just Scribbling Away!
Рет қаралды 83,471
Күн бұрынSome days you just gotta draw! Today we start out by examining some bits and baubles I gathered on my (mostly) daily walks from which I attempted to glean some inspiration. Then we used a variety of different pens and attempted to do some drawings, with mixed success:
0:00 Intro
2:28 Examining Inspo Collectibles
8:22 Quick Doodle #1 (POSCA Pen)
17:49 Trying Out the Additive Pen
33:22 Sketchy Doodle #2 (Muji Ballpoint Pen)

The day I reached 50 years of age, I climbed Ben Nevis (the highest mountain in the United Kingdom/Ireland) and felt fantastic. I am now in my mid 50s and rearing to get back out to the trails and forget the aging process completely. ..... You are indeed a very young man Peter! Keep up the great work.

Sweet video Peter! I do not want to disappoint you, but at 59 I cannot believe how fast the years seem to be going bye! I swear I was only 45 just a week ago! It is very wacky the way time seems to speed up as you age. I have also had some health problems and that can cause some real time distortion! I completely lost the year 2016 in it entirety! Between the drugs and time spent in the hospitals I got very mixed up! I believe I am on a good track now, but Time fly's no matter if your having fun it or NOT! Peter, enjoy your life and take each and every day as it comes you will not see it again! Be well my young friend.

I saw a VSauce video several years ago explaining that time seems to speed up as we get older because each year takes up a smaller proportion of our lifetime. For example, when you’re two, one year is half of your life, but when you are 30, a year is 1/30 of your life. That makes a year seem shorter and shorter as we age

@linden5165 3 жыл бұрын
Also as you get older the years aren't so different from each other. When you're young you grow up so much year to year and transition through levels of school, higher education, starting jobs. When you're older it's often more stable and ongoing, the time flies by.

I once had my 96 year old Great Aunt tell that you can not even grasp the concept in your 30's how fast time will go by in your 90's. . . I think time flying by is directly related to things you are looking forward to. In your youth everything is ahead of you and Christmas and the end of the school year etc etc just seem to take forever to come. There comes a point where you just don't have those anymore and your life is behind you. Life becomes a free fall. . . Weeeeee. . . . .

Anything can be art. There’s no such thing as right or wrong art. Any art can be good. Man I love the absolute freedom of this hobby.

More of these please - I become mesmerized watching you draw in real time. Thank you. (Oh, and yes; the older you get the faster time will seem to go by.

I’m soon going to finish a long (many more pages than I’m used to) sketchbook. My time with it went by so fast, being so relaxed and unattached with it yet loving the experience. On a side note, I found a pen I dropped years ago. Just a ballpoint, but I love them. Anyway, it worked pretty well! I feel like people don’t often use a disposable pen completely, but it’s satisfying to know all you’ve done with it and you gave it a life. That same pen filled much of the sketchbook!

I’m creeping up on 40. 37 in a few days. It feels like I’ve been in my 30s for a long time. My 20s feel like they flew by. Maybe because I spent most of them on drugs and alcohol. I felt like I’d be much “further along” by the time I got to 40, but seems like I’m not the only one in my generation that feels like that. And I’m not even sure what “further along” even means anymore. Wife, kids, and a house, I guess, but uhh... I don’t even know if that’s something I want, honestly.

I too spent most of my 20s in similar activities (drugs alcohol etc) I keep telling myself somehow this experience was worth it and will be of use in the future.

Nature’s spike ball if you will, is from the the gum tree( or gum ball tree). Soooo, that’s true! The name comes from the edible sap that’s was used as gum for the aboriginals. What you have there is a seed pod. If you got it when it was green, you’d see it dry out and release tons of pellet like seeds. Very common where I live too.
