Video Tour with Peter Graham ROI

7th December 2020 2pm -  via The Mall Galleries website  www.mallgalleries.org.uk

A modern tradition of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters Annual Exhibition is the guided tour by member  Peter Graham given every year around the galleries.

However with this year’s exhibition being exclusively online, Peter is giving the tour via video:

Tune in to see Peter talk about eighty of the works in this year’s show, including paintings by long-established ROI members as well as pieces by non-member artists selected from open submission.

Peter Graham is one of Britain’s foremost Modern Colourists and a member of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters. His own work is related to the modern Scottish school of painters, but Peter has a flamboyant style which is unique – detailed brushwork combined with looser fluid strokes creating vibrant contrasts of pure colour, line and tone. Peter lives and works in Glasgow.

'Contemporary Still Lifes', published in The Artist

I am delighted to give you a preview of  'Contemporary Still Lifes' - my new article published this month in 'The Artist' magazine (August 2020 Edition) - Written in Lockdown, the article explores painting subjects close to home. This has been good for the soul with still life possibilities coming from flowers in the garden.

And here is a reminder of some of the wonderful people in the art world - Romantic coastal painter and friend Pam Carter and I met up at Glasgow Art Club at the spectacular private view.

'Peter Graham is a painter who draws his inspiration from his travels around Europe and America- sadly curtailed at the moment. But he and now we can dream of what we are missing. Still life however becomes even more apt.. together these three painters represent Glasgow School of Art in its glorious years of the 1950s to 1970s.'

Painting in Le Touquet with Peter Graham

Virtual Trip to Le Touquet

Around this time of year I normally drop in to Le Touquet on the Opal Coast of Northern France. It has a wonderful art deco atmosphere as a beach town with delightful restaurants like Perard, and an expanse of golden sands and dunes. Here is a glimpse of the coast alongside a couple of paintings created on the magnificent beach - I hope you get the feel of the place and needless to say, I cannot wait to get back …hope to see you there!
