Peter lives and works in Takapuna, on Auckland’s North Shore, and is represented by Newmarket’s Railway St Studios
He describes his work as continually reaching towards the passage of time, revealed in the play of light and shadow as it illuminates and travels across the objects and interiors that capture his attention. The finely finished realism of these paintings emerges, slowly, from 'learning to take a long loving look at what is', but is also rooted in a determined focus on the abstract formal qualities of line and composition.
Quiet and contemplative, his work invites viewers to bring their own stories and experience into the play of light and space Peter presents.
