 Jander is one of South Africas most renowned Impressionists, although he modestly prefers to be known as a landscape painter.

With the exception of lessons with the highly acclaimed artist, Arthur Mant, on colour mixing methods, he is essentially a self-taught painter. Peter has been significantly influenced by the great Impressionists of the past, however he has taken his version of impressionism onto an entirely new level and in keeping with the 21st Century. He possesses that skilful ability to capture the mood and atmosphere of a specific moment.

His consuming passion and love for his work makes his paintings come alive. To date, he has held over 160 one man exhibitions as well as collaborate showing with Old Masters like the late Gabriel de Jongh, Errol Boyley and Eric Wale. He also exhibits regularly in the U.K.In recent years Peters paintings have  found their way into prestigious Auction Houses both in Cape Town and abroad.
