Our
involvement with Jiri Emmer's Perseus Publishing in the Czech Republic
led to this iconic painting and one to be included in our hardback book
"TIME & AGAIN" which we have begun developing. The painting was
originally created during the 1980's when Peter was deep into his
fantastical period and working full time throughout Europe with small
publishers becoming household names, assisted by Peter's input.
The
Robert Asprin novels, extremely popular in the U.S.A., were a favourite
of the Perseus list of books and Peter enjoyed being exposed to
their witty brand of humour and responded with a goodly number
decidedly witty visual pictures! Bob Asprin wrote some stand alone
novels (Cold Cash War, Tambu and The Bug Wars) and also the Duncan and
Mallory Illustrated stories, but is best known for his charmingly witty
fantasy series, being the Myth Adventures of Aahz and Skeeve. He lived
in the French Quarter of New Orleans.
Sadly, Bob Asprin died on May 22 2008 - a great loss to the genre of fantasy writing.

Dragon
images seem always to sell and Peter has painted a good number which
have always been popular. This green Dragon has committed an
indiscretion and a body lies prone in the doorway, smoke issuing from
the toes of its shoes. This is a picture that Peter had continued to
work on and he has just completed an "improvement" period. Now it is
truly "finished" and up on the Internet and pride of place in our
magazine and catalogue.
The
working process for this piece has been interesting to observe, used as
a "test bed" for various techniques, transitioning through a pencil
visual (which we'll be adding to the list of works below at some point)
a small colour "rough" (which is as finely crafted as the larger pieces
actually!) then a medium sized painting which was first created
digitally but then the Artist felt that oil and acrylic really gave it
a better textural quality and so it became a mixed media piece and then
finally, some 10 years later, he painted a larger oil and Acrylic
entirely organic piece.
Sometimes,
an Artist cannot rest until he is fully complete with an idea that just
urges him to be personally satisfied with it and, now, he can ffinally
say he is "done" with what he has to say on this subject!
Enjoy
it on your computer desktop or on your wall in your living space as a
dramatic and superb quality painting in an equally magnificent unique
studio-designed and made frame - magnificent!
