My name is Charles Peters - I am 26 years old, Tennessee born. Though I study relentlessly - I’m purely self taught. I’m very serious about my work, and how I spend my time. Books, online courses, documentaries, studies - I believe it’s most important to have an educated grasp on art history in order to be great today. I paint everything
My name is Charles Peters - I am 26 years old, Tennessee born. Though I study relentlessly - I’m purely self taught. I’m very serious about my work, and how I spend my time. Books, online courses, documentaries, studies - I believe it’s most important to have an educated grasp on art history in order to be great today. I paint everything I see, and every way it makes me feel - there is no single subject in my work. My work, as I age, will represent who I am in each period of my life: who I was, how I felt, how I thought, how I saw - Terror, fear, anger, happiness, beauty, and everything in between. There’s no catch - I paint pictures, and you come in and decide if it’s art. I am committed to the act of painting, as it is my lifestyle, for as long as I live. After all, “artists are forced out of their own free will to paint” - Willem De Kooning.
