I guess what's important here, is not so much the words, but the pictures. Since the late 1990s Peter has made his home in Muskoka Ontario Canada. By that point he did not have to travel anymore and could work from the cottage. Peter 's focus was corporate for the first few years but kept up exploring the fine arts through impressionism, in Oils and pastels. Hi first public showing after returning from abroad, was 1997 in Muskoka. Since that time He has opened galleries in Baysville - Bala and Port Carling.
