Peter Brown Exhibition

One of my favorite contemporary artists, Peter Brown, is currently showing his second portfolio of grand landscape and cityscape oils at the prestigious W.H. Patterson Gallery in London’s tony Albermarle arts district. Brown’s realistic expressionism offers a distinctly modern vernacular take on obviously classic compositions. His brilliant use of color, his faithful renderings, and his eye for irony are evident on nearly every canvas. The fact that his subject matter is the magnificent architectural heritage of Cambridge and Oxford just makes his paintings that much more attractive. If like me, you are stuck on the wrong side of the pond to catch this delightful exhibition of forty new paintings, visit the gallery via the web at: www.whpatterson.com.
