PETER DIGGERY
 

view more by this artist

In 1992, after 30 creative years in advertising, Peter and his wife Jenny (a gifted and enthusiastic quilter), bought an acre of ground, designed and built a thatched cottage in Greyton and retired to the Overberg to pursue fine art, craft and gardening.

"With my advertising background, making things look good is part of my DNA. If I paint your portrait it will be you, that is a given, but you on your best day ever!

The elements of colour; value, temperature, intensity and especially hue, with a delicate balance between realism and the excitement of arbitrary colour are vital in my painting process, whatever the subject matter.

People and animal studies are my passion where I always try to achieve a feeling of spontaneity, expressiveness and attitude. For me every stroke is an adventure, because there’s more to art than duplicating reality". - Peter Diggery

Peter has many happy buyers, not only from South Africa but also from the USA, UK, Europe and Australia.
