Peter Wileman

Peter Wileman paints for light and atmosphere above all. His landscapes and coastal scenes are bold and vigorous, thick with colour and confident brushwork, pushed toward abstraction but never losing the feeling of a real place at a particular moment of the day.

He works in oil, which he finds the most responsive medium to shifting light and mood. After years as an art editor on magazines, he set out on his own, and has painted for more than forty years since, chasing the same thing each time, the effect of light on a scene.

A past President and Fellow of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters, he is also a member of the Royal Society of Marine Artists and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. His work has won numerous awards and hangs in private collections around the world.

He lives and works in England.
