Painting buildings has always been at the heart of Peter's drawing and paintings. He works directly from the environment, often revisiting places many times and in ever changing weather and seasons.

"My work has become a direct response to the ever changing light, often changing with the weather. Changing my palette with mood and nature, from the black and brown hues of winter to the yellows and ochre of autumn. More so the bright and fresh greens, yellows and clear blue skies of springtime have special appeal in my working year."

His paintings have been inspired by his immediate surroundings as well as his travels. Visits to North Wales, Cornwall and the Gower have resulted in a series of larger paintings that also aim to capture something of the essence of place. Peter works mainly in acrylics, embracing a range of techniques including glazing, impasto and direct painting
