About Peter Cheung
Peter is an Ontario based, multiple award-winning artist who works in oil paint and watercolour. Born in Hong Kong, he was influenced by Chinese art at an early age, although was not able to pursue it until later in life. After he moved to Canada in the late 70s, education and family commitments largely kept my artistic vigour at bay, but he never abandoned his desire to commit himself to the craft. In 2015, when circumstances permitted, Peter decided to leave the corporate world and committed to becoming a full-time artist.
“My philosophy for creating art is simple, I committed to create artwork that emanates energy, life force and movement. My portfolio strongly reflects my love affair of sailing and the wildlife of the west coast where I went to university and worked for fifteen years. My artwork heavily influenced by my fascination of the four season colours of Ontario and the East coast.”
