My "Smaller" paintings
Peter Hobden

I am a painter. I am enchanted to be a painter. I paint landscapes and people I have seen and been touched by.

I am fascinated by the promise of expression through light and color, with the power to evoke. I am under the spell.

Painting stitches meaning into the fabric of my life.

I discovered painting late, after more than 20 years as a computer developer and project manager.

This is a journal of my painting as it unfolds.

My paintings are at http://www.paint2d.com.
I will willingly respond to any serious inquiries.
