peter m drewett

Born and raised in Kent, Peter moved to Scotland in 1971 when he was just 14. Deeply inspired by the majestic mountains and lochs of the Great Glen, he immediately began painting magical scenes.

Completely self-taught, Peter turned professional in 1981 opening a gallery of his work in the North East of Scotland. It proved very popular and his paintings can now be found in dozens of countries around the world, from Australia to America. Equally at home painting Highland or Mediterranean scenes his highly acclaimed exhibitions have been mounted in such places as Andorra, Spain; Phoenix, Arizona (City Hall); Nagasaki; Queens Hall, Edinburgh and His Majesty’s Theatre, Aberdeen.

Peter has now become one of Scotland’s most popular and successful artists. We hope you will enjoy his work and join his growing band of collectors.

‘…An artist of great quality. Furthermore even thought he doesn’t say it, the secret of this light and of Drewett’s work lies in the perfection of his technique which ranks him with the best painters. He is recognized as an heir of Turner, Aivazovky, Vermeer and the Dutch School.’
Magda Bertran, Informacions Nacional, Spain

‘…The exhibition has been very much talked about, but no-one could have imagined how successful it would turn out to be…in our day Drewett is one of the leaders among painters of contemporary landscapes.’
