| Peter Graham was born in Glasgow in 1959 and attended the Glasgow School of Art, graduating in 1980. He worked for several years as a film editor for the BBC before turning to painting full time in 1986. A year spent in Singapore as The British Council Artist-in-residence at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts was followed by a series of prominent solo and group exhibitions in London, Scotland and New York.This established Peter's reputation as one of Britain's most gifted and original modern colorists.
His work is often related to the Modern Scottish School, but Peter has a flamboyant style which is unique - detailed brushwork combined with looser, fluid strokes - creating vibrant contrasts of pure color, line and tone. Peter spends the summer months in the French Riviera. In the winter, from his Cambridge studio, he creates his stunning still life compositions with color acting as the dominating theme, but also reflecting the heightened sense of atmosphere and passion that comes directly from the beauty of the Mediterranean.
