Dragonswarm
How Peter began painting rural scenes is simple, even if it sounds daft.
By : Deborah Susan Jones : Editor
Peter
has painted fantasy Dragons galore: fire breathing dragons, dragon
slayers, magic dragons, water dragons, double dragons, dragon legends,
dragon pictures of every kind - dragon lairs and. well, you name it,
pictures for dragon tales of probably every kind.

very successful, dragon (or dragon-like beasties) printings: many used
on paperbacks with the odd magazine thrown in and of course computer
games covers, boardgames, trading cards and even a Japanese telephone

When
Peter made the decision to become "self-published" in 1999 it did not,
and has not, seen the end of dragon paintings . . . . . . .
He
included dragons in his book "Paintings of Ludlow" which, though about
a rural town in the County of Shropshire in rural England, is steeped
in the Arthurian legend and the very roots of that legend are in the
prophesy concerning "the Red Dragon of Wales and the White Dragon of
England" and that too has lead to some newer works being created in the
studio right now.
To our great satisfaction these dragon art pictures remain as popular as ever.
