  Peter Canty, “Pacific Cove”, Oil on canvas

  Peter Canty received his BA in art from the Chouniard Art Institute, Los Angeles (now California Institute of the Arts) and an MA from the University of California, Santa Cruz in 1969. Heavily influenced by the Post-Impressionist masters Van Gogh, Gauguin and Cezanne, in his own he words he describes his interest in landscapes, believing they are, “the best vehicle for motion, force, and color dynamics.” Although his work reference realistic subjects, Canty’s imagery is drawn strictly from his own imagination.

  The Glasgow School was a circle of influential modern artists and designers who began to coalesce in Glasgow, Scotland in the 1870s, and flourished from the 1890s to sometime around 1910. Wylie and Lochhead’s output in the Glasgow Style, which was showcased at the 1901 Glasgow International Exhibition was designed by three young craftsmen – Ernest Archibald Taylor (1874–1951), John Ednie (1876–1934) and George Logan (1866–1939).
