Peter King, born in Glasgow in 1953, studied at Glasgow School
of Art in the mid 1970s under the tutelage if David Donaldson
RSA and Duncan Shanks RSA. He has painted and exhibited
constantly while teaching full time in North Lanarkshire.
King exhibits regularly at the Royal Scottish Academy, The Royal
Glasgow Institute and Thompson's Galleries London. Peter's work
is represented in collections across the UK, Europe and North
America. His paintings have featured in an Art Shop Article on
contemporary British Landscape painting, Sunday Times Magazine
April Edition 2000.
The light and colour of the weathered landscape of Kintyre, The
Clyde Valley and the vast panorama of land and sky dominated by
Tinto Hill and the Scottish Borders are a constant source of
ideas and inspiration.
He has developed his paintings from a range of motifs, which he
constantly returns to and reinterprets, focusing on aspects of
the changing moods of light, weather and seasons. The source of
his ideas is the changing visual effects of nature and the
surrounding environment. Colour and the tactile qualities of
paint are essential to his painting style. The marks, free paint
and textured shapes become field, wood and sky. |
