MAM
Instructor Spotlight: Oscar Peterson
|
|
|
|
|
Meet one of MAM's dedicated
art instructors!
Oscar Peterson has
worked as a professional art director and designer/illustrator
for various corporations and non-profits, and as a commissioned
fine arts painter who specializes in portraiture. Peterson
mostly paints from life, using traditional methods and
techniques while incorporating new ideas and personal
observations. His approach echoes a favorite quote from Alberto
Giacometti; “The object of art is not to reproduce reality, but
to create a reality of the same intensity.”
Take a class with Oscar
this summer. He will be teaching the adult class, Life Drawing.
