Best known for his beguiling oil paintings, Peter van Straten nonetheless returns again and again, with gratitude, to the inexpressible elegance of drawing – a craft he adores for the purity and simplicity of expression it allows.
He investigates a new theme with every painting he makes, but whether drawing or painting, his work is always anchored in a passionate love of the natural world, and an endless fascination with light – physical or metaphysical.
He lives in Cape Town and at 38 is a veteran of 17 Solo exhibitions.
