Personal Statement by Peter Buckey

see Peter Buckey's web site
For one whole year I painted a sky every day, always on location. I gradually began to understand the advice of ‘paint what you see not what you know’. By the end of that year I felt able to capture the spirit of a scene and breathe some truth into my studio work. Since then I have travelled with my paint box all over the world: the Greek Islands, the Canaries, Venice, Malta, Turkey, Spain, India and America.

The pleasure in being able to instantly capture the spirit and ambience peculiar to each place is enormous.

Since moving to Broadstairs from London in 2001 I have focused on the beautiful East Kent coast although wherever I go on holiday my paint box goes with me.
