Notes:An artist who aims to distil 'a mixture of fascination, loathing and fear' in his audience, Peter Anderson received an education through the unlikeliest of art schools - crewing aboard the brigantine Eye of the Wind. Despite having graduated from several Australian art colleges and been accepted as a student at St Martin's School of Art in London, at the ripe age of 21 Anderson abandoned traditional education for a life at sea. Long regarded as a talented painter, Anderson's technique is arresting both in its detail and depiction of light, as visible in Kim's Lookout, Lord Howe. It also shows a clear and comprehensive understanding of the patterns of the sea, as in Rain Bora Bora II.
