Peter Tugwell

Drawing

A little bit more about

Peter Tugwell

Peter is an artist whose drawings explore native flora and fauna with the simplicity of lead pencils, ink and paper as tools.

Exploring the production of handmade rough textured papers, he enjoys the interplay between drawing in ink and the highly textured surface.

Peter studies the detail in objects – the sand weathered remains of a shell, a curled leaf from a eucalypt which he feels can reveal a deeper truth of life.

"Objects that are small, commonplace, seemingly insignificant and often overlooked can be surprisingly beautiful and inspiring images to draw."
