NEWS about Peter Robertson

In 2005 I am emerging into the painting of abstract artwork. Come see these originals at my Bastion Square booth, April through October 2005.

My newest colour image in 2004 was "The Butchart Gardens: 100 Years", painted in great detail in gouache. I painted it in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of this well-known BC tourist attraction in 2004. Buy your own copy today.

I am now teaching the art of painting with gouache in art classes and individual tutorials.
