PETER DAVIS RSW: New paintings

Water and pigment has held a lifetime fascination for Peter Davis, and the sea too. That has always been close. Davis's present studio is by the sea in Shetland, facing west - next stop America - and for many years he has studied its endless play of water and light.

Peter Davis' approach, with its methodology and experimentation, is both scientific and artistic, but it is the artistry that we remember most. The miracle of something so vast, captured in a small framed object, is a wonder that makes Davis one of the most innovative masters of the watercolour medium anywhere. 

We are pleased to share with you five fresh works on paper, along with the first showing of a new series of more abstract watercolours on canvas.
