Mid Century Modern Beach House

This painting is one of a new series based upon the principles of mid century art. It is a reflection of that style. Mid century art can be defined by clean lines and a sense of simplicity that gives each piece a timeless appeal. Embracing the spirit of modernism, this piece uses bold shapes and colours to create a visual balance. The result is a style that feels both sophisticated and playful, capturing the essence of an era that continues to inspire contemporary design. I find inspiration from Edward Hopper, David Hockney and Australian Jeffrey Smart. The theme of this painting is a house on Beach Road.
This painting continues on all sided and is unframed..

Peter is an Australian artist whose creative journey spans over five decades. With a Diploma of Art and Design completed in the late 1960s, he began a career that would balance both teaching and painting. After becoming a secondary art teacher, he continued to develop as an artist, painting in his spare time while educating the next generation of creatives.
Throughout his career, Peter has sold hundreds of paintings across Australia and Internationally, with works that have found homes in private collections.. He has exhibited in numerous galleries and art shows and was honoured to be an artist-in-residence at Bright Art and Craft Gallery many years ago, a testament to his commitment to the Australian art community.

Though his work spans a range of subjects and styles, Peter is known for using both acrylics and water colours, creating paintings that reflect a personal exploration of form, colour, and texture. Peter has never felt bound to a singular artistic style, instead embracing a more fluid, experimental approach to painting. This open-mindedness has allowed him to adapt and grow as an artist, continually evolving with each new piece.

Now, Peter continues to create art, sharing his passion and vision with the world through a diverse and ever-changing body of work.
