Peter is a contemporary abstract artist based in North Dorset. He works predominantly with oils on canvas using both a palette knife and paintbrush. Peter has always been interested in exploring the relationship between immense urban settings and they are often deeply-contrasting accompanying skylines and water bodies, using an expressionist approach. Often multiple canvases are used to convey the vast scale and range of colours while still keeping to a broad-stroke expressionistic style. Peter is also interested in expressing movement and vivacity of people using very complex colour sequences; abstract figurative shapes are used to explore this theme which loosely adheres to cubist tradition.
