Painter


"Atlas of Memories"


"This is a series of images based on memories of real places and/or dreams I have of landscapes. Each piece is a map or guide to one of these memories. Some images depict a bird's eye view of the place, as if from a plane or a drone, while others are more abstract depictions where colors are more important than realistic details."

- Peter Anderson


Peter was born in Roswell, New Mexico, in 1950 and spent his formative years in both Roswell and Colorado. He pursued higher education at the University of Denver and the University of Stockholm, where he obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Literature.
