Peter
G. Georgeson …his
art could very likely be considered the reincarnation of the meaningful
works of art from the Renaissance Era. He has clearly defined a
genre of art all his own. With a direct influence of the great masters’
traditions along with the zest to innovate from a current perspective,
he is representative of a recovered spirit of the traditional masters.
Peter
descends from a paternal lineage of artisans. He was born to an
artist, George P. Georgeson in Jamestown NY and grew up in Dallas
drawing race cars and cartoon characters. With a suitcase of paints
and some stubble on his chin, he took a train to New York City,
studied at Pratt Institute of fine arts and with his BFA went to
work as a graphic designer in the big city. Nine years later he
journeyed west to Seattle and disembarked on an illustration career,
embellishing many a book with his drawings and paintings. Some of
his titles include, The Untamed Heart; Totally Aliens; The Magic
Nose; and Totally Bugs. All along though, it was his deeper more
personal vision and appreciation of the fine art masters that has
driven him to produce this amazing new genre of art.
