20th - 24th June 2021 - Alpha Painting Holiday in The Lake District

Paint the Southern Lakes, Villages & Castles of Cumbria with Peter Woolley. We will paint at selected secluded spots around Lake Windermere and Coniston plus we will paint at places such as Hawkshead, Cartmel Priory, Cark, Holker Hall and Sizergh Castle, Kendal. We will also paint a selection of bridges, waterfalls, cascading rivers, rocks, villages, churches and castles.

Places on this fantastic painting opportunity are already filling up fast, so book today!

Pyjama Video is proud to present the sixth in a series of video demonstrations, The World in Watercolour, based on Peter's travels running workshops on cruise ships, and sketching trips, home and abroad.

Join Peter Woolley, as he travels across Ireland from East to West in search of subjects to paint and draw.

His journey begins in the glacial valley of Glendalough before pausing by ancient ruins in Wicklow Gap.

In County Tipperary, The Rock of Cashel makes a great line and wash subject, followed by a brief sketch of Glanworth Bridge, one of the oldest and narrowest public stone bridges still in use in Europe.



In Killarney, he enjoys the delights of Muckross Abbey and Torc Waterfall before hiking up the spectacular Gap of Dunloe in Killarney National Park to earn his pint of Guiness.

 A line and pencil drawing of Kerry Cliffs and a memorable visit to Blarney Castle concludes this epic sketching trip.

Special Features include a gallery of work and full biography.

The one shown here is 'Traversing the Ridge' - a re-imagining of Peter's earlier work, 'Crib Goch, Snowdon', which is still available in the main gallery here.

To order, go to the Hills & Mountains Gallery and bag yourself a bargain today.

Pyjama Video is proud to present The fourth title in The Projects Collection video series, the natural progression from Peter's Watercolour for Beginners series, aimed at intermediate painters and improvers.

Projects feature Location Information to help you get to really know the subject and two full working demonstrations; the first one, a Preliminary Pencil Sketch, is followed by a demonstration of the subject, painted up in watercolour. Bonus material will include a brief study of a specific technique associated with the subject.

Join Peter as he explores the views across the historical capital city of Portugal, Lisbon. After demonstrating a couple of simple, but effective, loosening-up techniques, he draws out the scene in pencil before finishing with a line and wash painting.

Bonus Demonstration: Rural farm buildings rise from the mist in Misty Marrick.
