Peter Fennell
Peter is a self-taught artist, his style has varied hues, lushly applied and careful compositions are infused with emotion. Bush scenes are softened with his impressionistic view landscapes.
Using light as a kind of tunnel in his works, Peter is able to draw the viewer into the understated arrangement of the painting (by blending colour and form with life and élan). His love of wildlife is often depicted by elegant inclusions of herons, egrets, seagulls or pelicans.

Peter Fennell's Biography
Drawing and painting have been a part of Peter’s life since childhood and has been painting professionally for over 40 years. Leaving a banking career at the age of 21, he decided to travel and spent some time working for mining companies at Mt. Isa and outback Queensland. He was impressed by the contrasts of the outback life to that of life in city environs.
Today his work depicts versatility in his range of subjects from the city and beaches to the bush. Peter relaxes with his hobby of fishing and boating, with his wife and two sons Benjamin and Joshua.
