In this episode we head to Gosford, NSW, Australia, to visit Peter Smeeth. Born 1949 in Griffith, NSW, Australia and educated at Yanco Agricultural High School, Peter studied Medicine at the University of Sydney from 1966 to 1971 and after working at Royal North Shore Hospital and Canberra Hospital spent 34 years as a family doctor in General Practice at The Entrance on the Central Coast of NSW. He changed to full-time art practice in 2008 and works as a professional portrait artist in Sydney and the Central Coast.
He has drawn and painted since early childhood and always regarded his art practice as a search for excellence that continues to this day. Peter has a special interest in the human condition which is manifest in his portraits and figurative works but he enjoys all forms of art from the totally abstract to the super real. He works in most media …pencil, pastel, charcoal, watercolour, oil, acrylic and does sculptural work in plaster or bronze.
