"There
are plenty of quality framers in Washington D.C., but I buy my frames
from Minnesota's Metropolitan Picture Framing. Their work is top
quality. Prices are competitive. Service is courteous, and shipping
is prompt. What a relief! No more carting canvases back and forth,
no more city traffic, no more parking tickets. Thank you Metropolitan."
The unifying element of Mr. Peterson's painting is objective form,
expressively rendered. He believes that paint is capable of creating
form and simultaneously expressing its own essence.
He paints in oil. The paintings evolve over many sessions. The surfaces
are progressively built up. Colors and forms are altered and moved
with each new layer.
The sources for his recent imagery are varied - ranging from reflections
on his childhood on a dairy farm to investigations of masterworks
of art history.
His fundamental belief is that painting is about the beauty with
which lines and planes and colors are brought into harmony. He sees
painting as continuous problem solving and decision making.
