The Glasgow Art Club gallery
October 2019
I am honoured to be selected as Artist of the Month at the Prestigious Glasgow Art Club with its newly restored Charles Rennie Mackintosh Gallery.
The Club, established 1867, has had a multi million pound renovation:
"The Gallery has been completely refurbished. It was stripped back to the brick work, earth floor and the roof removed. It was rebuilt, repaired and restored to its original."
- Celia Sinclair, Trustee of the Glasgow Art Club and leader of the renovation project- Founder of the Willow Tearooms Trust
The Glasgow Art Club, 185 Bath Street, Glasgow is open to the public and I must also highly recommend another historic venue on the Mackintosh trail - the original ' Willow Tea Rooms Trust' which is just around the corner at 217 Sauchiehall Street.. the afternoon teas are second to none!

Peter's recent painting will be on show at The Club
Having recently returned from one of my regular painting trips to Mull and The Inner Hebrides I find the world a calmer place. These distant Isles are the perfect tonic for the soul - I regularly meet artists and writers on my travels to the West Coast of Scotland- it seems to hold some of the secrets that lead to that illusive inspiration - enjoy the view
A changing display of recent paintings by Peter will be a new feature of the magnificently appointed Saint-Tropez Lounge Club of The Capitainerie . Peter was official artist of Les Voiles Latines Regatta in 2018. Anne-Marie Dandin, Head of Communications at the Port invited Peter to be part of the new face of the Port of Saint-Tropez with the opening of the Lounge Club of The Capitainerie. The Lounge is inspired by the great period of transatlantic shipping and affords spectacular views of the historic town and the port entrance.
