About the artist.
Richard Peterson, born in San Pedro, California in 1947, grew up in Southern California during the years of the 1960s. While he came of age riding the waves of famed surfing spots like Huntington Beach, Malibu and Rincon, he grew into a 'Renaissance' man - a painter, pianist and collector of antiques with a scholar's knowledge and an artist's eye.
As a young man, he discovered that he had an unusual artistic ability, but he was not drawn to the modern styles of Abstract or Pop art that were popular in his youth, but rather to the paintings of the Old Masters. He spent many years studying the works of the Old Masters in the museums. Peterson found old books that described the paint-making, painting and glazing techniques of the Old Masters. He learned to grind his own colors, prepare his canvasses and glaze the finished works like painters from the 17th century.
Best known for his landscapes, Peterson recreates on canvas life the way it was long ago in England and Central Europe. Shepherds, boatmen, peasant, towers and castles looking over green valleys, lakes and woodlands are all common subjects for the artist.
The work of Richard Peterson is Featured in exhibitions in the United States, England, Switzerland, France and Austria, his work can be found in many major collections worldwide
