About the artist: Peter has worked with watercolour all his life. He hails originally from north-east England and, after taking an art and design course, he taught for some years in Cumbria before moving to Orkney in 1981, where he set up his own gallery. Ten years later, he moved to Shetland. Now retired from teaching, he continues to paint and exhibit. His latest exhibition ‘Clear Sight’ is currently on display in Da Gadderie at Shetland Museum and Archives.
