Collection: Peter Graham
Peter Graham ROI (b. 1959) attended the Glasgow School of Art, graduating in 1980. In 2000, he was elected to Full Membership of The Royal Institute of Oil Painters. Peter has earned a reputation as one of Britain's most gifted and distinctive Modern Colourists. His work is often related to the Modern Scottish School, but Peter has a flamboyant style which is unique - detailed brush work combined with loose fluid strokes creating vibrant contrasts of pure colour, line and tone. His work has been featured in the Royal Institute of Oil Painters and the Society of Marine Artists. Collections include The British Council and Nan Yang Academy of Fine Arts Singapore. As his work develops his fascination with colour has taken the dominant role. In the winter months within his studio, he delved into the still life genre, creating some of his most stunning compositions, reflecting the heightened sense of atmosphere and passion that comes directly from painting in the beauty of the Mediterranean. Working 'en plein air' gives the flow of paint a chance to become second nature and allows true instinctive marks to come through. His painting seems effortless and intuitive which is the key to his unique style, attempting subjects that other artists would shy away from. His sense of colour is instinctive and inexplicable to those who happen to see him working on location. "Often because of my approach and choice of subject I attract on-lookers, which can be a hindrance but also a help as you can see what reaction you are getting to your work, a sort of instant criticism. Occasionally there is the persistent critic who has to share something with you, but generally people are very polite and understand the work is in progress and still developing."
