Peter Leckett, OSA, CSPWC, SCA
Welcome. This site details the work of Canadian landscape artist, Peter Leckett. Here you will be able to connect and collect directly with the artist.
What draws admirers to Peter's work isn't so much what he paints but how he paints it. At first glance, his work appears representational and somewhat detailed. Look deeper and it becomes marked by a delightful economy of expression. His sensitive eye and strong compositional sense combined with a unique style of painting bring entire scenes into vivid realism with just a few brushstrokes. One finds themselves fascinated both with the beauty of the natural scene represented and the simplicity of the artistic execution. Our attention flickers back and forth between what seems at first a beautiful precise photographic representation of a rustic scene, to wonderful abstract details of colour, contrast, and brushwork.
