Peter Gough

As an artist I like to hike through forests, and along rocky shorelines or paddle my way along a river or two. I note the moods of the changing weather and seasons and marvel how a well- beloved landscape can change it's appearance from one day to the next,one hour to the next. This is my world and this is what I paint. I believe that every work of art should in some way be a revelation. It should change us in some degree- both viewer and artist.

"His work is sheer magic. The magic lies in the essence of light."
Tom Butterfield, Masterwork Foundation,Bermuda

Gough began his art education at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, having received a scholarship to the college in 1969. Three years later, Gough attended Andrews University in Michigan, USA and continued his fine art education under the influence of sculptor Alan Collins, who designed the Memorial for President John F. Kennedy at Runnymede.
