Peter Anderson



Peter Anderson has a deep understanding of the anatomy and soul of the sea, gained from several years aboard sailing ships.
These paintings of the Southern Ocean convey both its enchantment and its fearsomeness.

Peter was born in Brisbane, Australia, in 1956, and is presently based there.

Andrew Tischler



Based in Western Australia, Andrew Tischler states on his website that, like many sea and landscape painters, he finds the reference photos he takes on site don't capture the inspirational feeling of standing before the subject. He also makes use of field sketches, and refers to several photos of the scene, rather than just one. This makes it easier to pull out the essential qualities of the place.

The most spectacular part of the WA coastline is at its the southern end.

Greg Baker - Australian


Rottnest, 168 x 71 cm


Getting Away, 124 x 93 cm
.
Wonderful abstract, expressionistic brushwork in the water reveals the energetic, calligraphic hand of the artist, while remaining true to the nature of water. This is contrasted with more contained brushwork in the land, suggesting solidity.
