Artist Information: Peter Nixon was born in Lytham St. Annes in the county of Lancashire, England in 1956. As a child, Peter was always artistic. He began drawing when he was 5 years old and went to a museum for the first time when he was 9 (The Royal Academy of Art in London) where he experienced Leonardo’s “Virgin and St. Anne” and “Virgin and Child.” These drawings had a profound effect on Peter’s artistic development.His images speak of peace, harmony, and celebration. His approach is innovative in his use of classic methods in contemporary contexts. When he draws a line, he wants it to look natural, as if it flows straight through the page – second nature. Coming from years of practice, Peter compares his drawing technique to the swing of a golfer. He tries to draw with ease to keep the flow and balance. The dynamism and movement of the human figure is something he tries to portray. He explains that humans don’t sit still and he’s trying to capture that energy in his work. He draws inspiration from the Renaissance master paintings in Venice, dance troupes, poetry, music, and gardens. He’s particularly inspired by Picasso, Titian, Bellini, and Veronese, as well as Matisse.
