I have to experiment with methods and I'm trying to find an authentic way of making an equivalent of the living, breathing person within the limits of a single picture.Peter Wright
Select Peter Wright Quotations
When I look at some of my old work, the pieces I find most interesting are the ones with people in them.
Peter Wright
You could always go on changing things but there comes a time when you have to decide to stop.
Peter Wright
Painting is seen as picture making, the making of an art object, something that can stand on its own.
Peter Wright
I tried to learn the violin for a while.
Peter Wright
I felt the need to get back to painting and I thought the best way was to start drawing, so I enrolled in a life drawing class. I soon discovered that people made very interesting subjects and I am still surprised that I had never discovered it before.
Peter Wright
I used to paint landscapes without any people in them but now I paint people who happen to be in a particular place. They might be outside a pub, or on a beach or in a studio. They might have clothes on or they might not.
Peter Wright
I never know what it's going to look like. Wouldn't be much point in painting if I already knew the outcome. I have a subject in front of me and I start flooding colour and making marks, I don't know, it's improvisation isn't it?
